Hi:-) well, I had this problem before and I didnt know what is wrong. It is a Poser problem and to tell you the truth I have no idea why is it like this...but yes, once you brong the background in Poser it lokks VERY pixellated. now, i am gonna try to explain you what I do, but my english is quite limited, so i hope you will understand... Ok, first of all, you render your composition with NO background imported, you can leave the background color that default grey, in case of a lighter background... but if you want to place it on a dark background then change the background color into black. after you rendered it, save the image as PSD. Open the PSD in Photoshop, click the "Channels" tab and you will see all your colour channels and the alpha chanel. The Alpha chanel will apear white in that lil square. Click CTRL on this alpha layer and you will see a selection around the white figure. After the selection appeared, you can actually drag the rendered figure right on the background picture. or you can click edit and copy. You will have the rendered figure on the background and you can resize it and place it wherever you want on the background:-) Hope I made sense. if not, write me and I will try to explain in a small tutorial:-) Val
