You may mean diorama. Which according to webster's on-line dictionary means:
Function: noun Etymology: French, from dia- + -orama (as in panorama, from E) 1 : a scenic representation in which a partly translucent painting is seen from a distance through an opening
2 a : a scenic representation in which sculptured figures and lifelike details are displayed usually in miniature so as to blend indistinguishably with a realistic painted background b : a life-size exhibit (as of a wildlife specimen or scene) with realistic natural surroundings and a painted background
A polite answer would have been appreciated instead of a snide remark.
Thanks for your feedback though.

WAH! If you can't appreciate a little snide humor, your silly thread will soon be something you regret!

Anyone who posts a question that makes a good straight line is going to get teased. It's happened to me, and to pretty much everyone on FR. Don't take it personally.

Are you sure he/she didn't mean diaphragma?
