3D layer in front of camera

[Dustin Ward]

I’m basically trying to put a picture in 3D space in front of my camera at the right orientation. I’ve just been copying and pasting the attributes of the closest layer to the one that I am inserting and finessing it from there to look decent. Is there a better way? My camera has been moving all over the place and I just want to get the picture to drop right in front of the camera and I can move it back in z space and place it where I want it.
