The big image has only one figure (vicky2) and the garment is the perdiod gown (daz) with some transmapped hairdo. The roses are two different ones. I think geralday made one and the other was found at the freestuff (for poser). Both of these were .obj and imported into poser, saved (about 7 together) as a pz3 file (to make it easier to have a bunch appearing). The funny thing is that they are just a stem with the flower at the end (not a whole plant). I probably have 30 of them (give or take a few). I would try deleting and saving, but this scene is a killer on my machine. Anything other than "Render" will likely lock it up (winME). I guess it'll remain a mystery. I just thought it was weird that the same number of polys yeilded such different file sizes. Probably it has to do with the overhead of maintaining all of materials for each rose (about 100 different materials if you count each rose having 3 materials) and whatnot. Thanks everyone for the suggestions. It's kind of nice to know what is normally to be expected with vue. I have only done a dozen or so images, and was afraid I might have to put vue on the back burner til I got a new machine. Looks like that scene was just a fluke. Eric
