displacement mapping.

[Clarisanne]

I'm trying to wrap a flat label around a 3d bottle shot, & I think I'm missing a step somewhere. I've turned my image to grayscale, gone back to my original & made the path, then laid over my label, & used the black & white version when it asks me for a map to use. Am I doing this wrong? Is there a simpler way? Any help would be great.

Thanks.
