Simple. Poser would like a .jpg (PC & MAC) or .bmp (PC) or .pict (MAC) not a tif. I think it will read it but more likely than not you'll have problems with it. Best to stick with a jpeg, takes up less room on your hard drive and Poser likes it better. HINT: Save the jpeg at maximum to retain as much detail as possible. It's stil much small than a tiff. James
