is the pale victoria for V3???? the way you describe making a new 2d-texture...did you make the texture yourself? The mapping is incorrect...or not mapped for the figure.... Also, there are head textures or body textures. You must use a V3 head texture on V3 head...V3 body texture on V3 body.... If this is a texture for a different figure, it will not work until other things are done.... There is quite a bit more to the whole deal, but lets start here.... you may want to check out this tutorial http://arcana.daz3d.com/tutorials/co/co02/01.html
