A new monochromatic imaging and spectral synthesis package for Be stars, based on the bedisk code, is introduced. Example images and spectra are given for for H i and Fe ii. Predicted Fe ii equivalents widths are also compared to recent observations by Arias et al. (2006) and show good agreement, although only for very dense disks.
