Hi wabe, thanks for taking the time to getting an answer to this and also big thanks to Guitta for sharing her thoughts. Many people here miss her very much, too! As there was no answer at first, I had a deeper look into the Poser folders (as I was using a standard character). I'm completely new to the program and thus not very used to where and what things are. For a first run, I found a .tif for that figure and applying that as a bitmap in Vue, I could color the figure. Didn't manage with the hair yet and made a Vue texture for that. However, I suppose it is the better idea to make the parts seperate to be able to apply different relief or shininess to different parts (like cloths and skin). One of the bitmaps did not seem to really match the appearance of the character within Poser anyway. I'll give you suggestions a try during the weekend (once I figure out, how to do it...) and keep you posted on the outcome. I probably will get Poser 4 within the next months but need some figures for a short term project and thought this might be a good way to get my feet wet.
