To answer Ron's question: A "texture" is the same as a "texture map" is the same as a "texture image" is the same as an "image map" is the same as an "image". They all mean the same thing- it is simply an image file (.gif, .jpg, .bmp, etc.) that can be applied to "colorize" a 3-D object. (The word "map" refers to the fact that the image can be "mapped" to precisely cover the 3-D object's geometry.) A "MAT Pose" is Poser's automated way of applying the texture to the selected 3-D object. The MAT Pose defines which texture is applied to which part of the object (the "material"). Ron, in your example, the "Michael Map" is a "figure" created by DAZ: it is the "Mike" figure, but with textures already applied (compared to the "Mike" figure, which does not have the tetxures applied.) P.S. Thanks for the screen shot using Windows XP- it looks cool. But, next time, could you make the image a little smaller? --John
