Need help!

Ok we at work are really beginning to take off in these tradeshow designs and we are manufacturing some pretty crazy frames for these graphics. My question is this!

What kind of 3d rendering program out there will take our 2d designs and render them to a 3d structure that we have drawn? If that doesn't make sense, basically what I need is a program that will take the graphic we are going to print and display it accurately on the structure so the client will more or less see a proof of the final product.

PLEASE help me find this program because there has to be one SOMEWHERE!! :D Thanks everyone

Hey doll, I'm not sure of a program that you can scan in a 2d design and have it automatically 3d, but then again, I'm not a graphic artist.

Try Zbrush if you haven't...but still it requires some effort.

Anyway, if anyone let's you know of a program that auto transforms 2d into 3d, I'd be sincerely interested to hear about it.

ok Zbrush looked like a stellar program, but I've found the one I believe we are going to use. The program is Strata 3D. It will actually import paths from illustrator and does a KILLER job of mapping images to it's surfaces. I haven't really had the chance to play around for fun in it, but as our business perspective it does a beautiful job of rendering images to our frames. Thanks for the help :D
