Acadia~
Thanks for the info! I use Corel Photopaint 8 and have for about 6 years now. No such animal in my app. laughs No wonder I didn't know what the heck it was! Thanks again - that was actually very informative.

Poser 7 has a glaring HUGE memory hole. Also, when doing work for extended periods of time, if you load in a texture only to change it later, etc, it never dumps the previously (and not-in-use) textures from the memory being used to run. Even if you click File-New and start a brand new scene, all the textures that were loaded in from the previous scene are still in Poser's memory and list, thus hogging up massive amounts of memory available to Poser even before you've started work on the new scene.
Eventually Poser 7 simply runs out of memory. Only option is to save the scene (even if things in the scene have turned solid white - don't worry, just save it), shut it down, and reopen it. Yes, it's a HUGE pain in the tail due to loading times and all that, but it's the only way, in my experience, to deal with that blasted problem. LOL
