Hmm, Jaager--its actually caused when the .jpeg gets in the bump channel instead of the .bum. I don't know all the technical stuff--I had always thought that Poser converted .jpegs to .bums too, but this seems to be a special case where it actually brings in the .jpegs--which I assume Pro Pak can use. It sort of threw me for a loop at first, but even now when they are loaded correctly, they don't always work correctly (for me) for all textures. Thus--I just slot them in manually once the are loaded. Diane
