Steve, thanks. From you, that's a BIG compliment S. Hope you decide you want to make more things for Vicky too. BTW, love the new CD--I hope to have a CD collection from you one of these days. Claire--if I can help, please let me know. We'll just be 2 'pilgrims' working our way through the forest. What I'd suggest is to open the dress, then go up to the materials part and see all the parts you can make transparent or not and how you can combine them. Make each a different color and make them all NOT transparent and you will see what's what and how you can fiddle with them. Then you'll start to see that you can do a heck of a lot with them. Also--each of these had morphs--the dress had the skirt morph, the skirt had a morph and the Tshirt had a shorten morph, a Vneck and a scoop morph. For the dress on the left, I mapped the dress template over the part that looked like it would include the tanktop and the skirt. Then I made the wrist, the elbow, the shoulder, the Vneck and the neck all grey. I could have combined any of these differently. I selected the rthigh, the lthigh and the hip and made them all long with the MT dials. If I had included the vneck in the dress, that would have made the dress be scoop neck. Anyhow, once you get to playing with these, you'll see all the things you can do, but if you have questions and I can answer them, more than glad to do that. Diane B
