Sorry. I should explain how I tweak and test. What I normally do is open poser and photoshop together and apply my 1st texture in poser. I do a few renders, then go to photoshop and tweak the tex. I then save it under a NEW name and apply it in poser, do more tests, and so on, until I get it right. So the tex that's loaded at the time of rendering is just another tex as far as poser is concerned. mac
