Fls13, Great idea, and one I should try. I'm new to all of this so I haven't attempted changing the colors of textures yet. I have a beautiful Native American Texture "Witchita" for V3 (from Poser-Corner.de)--the best looking texture that I've rendered so far. It comes out so perfect, and, now that you mention it, perhaps I'll see if I can darken it. Thanks for the suggestion. :-)
