RobynsVeil:

Do you have anything plugged into the Diffuse_Color channel on the Poser Surface Node? If you are not using that channel for your node set-up, you can set the value to 0.0 and plug the JPG into it. It will show up on your preview as normal, but not mess up your render. Credit this information to BB, who uses this technique in VSS.
