It could be something idiopathic. Ooooooh, what a great word. makes a note Lovely. As for the texture, I haven't got it, but I have a possible suggestion... Poser 5 and Poser 6 don't look for the full path for textures, just the filename. If you have some other file with the same name that Poser gets to first, Poser will apply that texture instead of the one you're looking for. It's maddening and frustrating and extremely stupid that Poser 5/6 do this, but that's the way it is. The only way I know to fix it is to change the name of the file to something unique and then edit the MAT pose to point to the newly named file. I've had to do this with many older products, including some stuff from DAZ. Note to merchants: Use UNIQUE filenames. It's not that hard to come up with a filename scheme that will set your "black.jpg" apart from everyone else's "black.jpg". ;-) (Learned this the hard way, just for the record.) bonni
