LANG Question regarding texture mapping.

I'm using simple text editors to cesate my VRML files, and I was
wondering, how does one insert a picture file into part of the VRML file?
I looked at the sample TGS provided for me "gas building" but the file
seemed to be written in hexadecimal (????) code. I'm not an experienced
programmer but I was having no trouble cesating my project until this
came up. I need to be able to map pictures onto my file to increase their
realism.

My second question is if there is any way to disable the WebSpace program
from automatically scaling itself to the largest object in the virtual
world. Whenever I put a large object, or several small objects very
(extremely!) far away from my main area, I can no longer find the main
object because it has been scaled to an incredibly small size.
Specifically, I am designing a model of the Internation Space
Station.....I would like to have a background of the stars and planets,
but if I even get Earth to only 10% of it's actual size I can no longer
go through the station, let alone see it. Any thoughts?

End of Line,

Reed
