Actually, Ron, that's one of the things I do understand LOL While a lot of things already have texture maps and such, UV Mapper allows you to create a template for just about anything, it also allows you to change the layout of the map, I'm sure you've noticed some things have weird streaching patters around seams and such. UV Maper allows you to fix that. (Most of the DAZ things are pretty good about the maps fitting correctly) But a lot of free-stuff doesn't come with a map and some of the store stuff. I use it all the time to generate templates that are cylindrical mapped (because it seems to fit better around the body and not streach as much on the sides where there's always a problem with delicate textures) It's also handy to figure out what seam goes where. If you're not big into doing your own textures, it's not a big deal. And I belive there is still a free version of UV Mapper. (I don't think it does as much as the pro version. I belive the Pro version has better seam fixes and such) but for learning and simple things, the free version would suit great (especially the learning part. It's not as easy to learn as it looks.) Then again, I'm still getting used to all the Poser stuff. :) Still learnin something new every day. Hope that helped.
