hey mike

thanx for the response. your resolution is really good and the photo bg works well.

generally speaking my final result is preview(on account of time) but i anti alise- it has always felt smoother.

a few issues i have run into are hair, in preview it can be a nightmare, but i have found some that look good or settled for a body texture with hair(but it only really works for males). one sided texture on certian models, again found some that are not one sided or found a way around it. lastly i have noticed when rendering to avi some strange pixelation happens over certian surfaces- making the footage unuseable. for this i was alerted to the image export feature, which for the most part solves it.

 

and a certianly going to test out your technique.

thanx again
