Ah... here's my post from last night... I wonder what the other one was.... Funny thing is that when I went into the shader and looked at the values for the section that was ending up visible it had a color setting of 'none' not the 'white' that Poser uses. I turned up the dial to 100% on "Multi Channel:Transparency:Value:" and in the shader preview it got a semi-transparent white look to it but in the render nothing changed. It still came through as white.

Truth has no value without backing by unfounded belief.
