Dear vangogh

I suggest you don't open photo textures in Bryce 7.1 Pro because it immediately crashes I would either carry on using Bryce 6.1 or create a .obp file and then import it into Bryce 7.1 Pro. NOTE: once you have save a file in Bryce 6.1 and then resave in Bryce 7.1 Pro you will not be able to use it again in Bryce 6.1 so you may want to consider whether it is worth just working in 6.1.

Good Luck and Happy Brycing
