I actually tried doing the lattices without the photo texture and a plain grey Bryce material, it only decreased the file by a couple KB. However, I did decrease the file size from 1024 down to 512, and down to 256 on some of the bw bmps and rendered them up close and personal, and there wasn't much degradation in the rendered lattice, the file size dropped on the test lattice from 13MB to 4.5MB, and that's unzipped. I used bmps instead of jpgs to make the lattices because bmps come out much sharper, but it's a trade off I guess with larger file sizes. What I'm trying to avoid is redoing 'everything' it took 3weeks to do, soooooooooooo I'm working on it. Thanks for the feed back guys.....btw I just took a look at my user presets folder with only these in it, and it's a whopping 2GB...8]
