The problem may lie in the way the object is mapped. If it was mapped strangely, then you will get stretching in some places and pinching in others. Your only option to avoid this with something like the texture you describe is to remap the object. A good rule of thumb is to map each part of your clothing individually according to it's basic shape. If it's round, map that area spherically. If it's a sleeve or a pant let, map it cylindrically. If it's square, like a belt buckle, map it either planar or box mapping. It takes some practice, but it's not impossible to learn :o). A good place to start is UV Mapper. Laurie
