how to plug texture map into glossiness?

[dave_kurgan]

Is it possible to hook up an image to the gloss input and adjust the brightness and contrast within the shader?

Why would it not be possible? You can connect either one of the RGB components or the alpha to the glossiness.

I couldn't figure out how to adjust an alpha channel with a colour correction node and plug it into the glossiness but it occurs to me now i can just do that with a single rgb component as you say. Brains not in gear today!
