Don't confuse me with the facts, Phil. :) Actually, what I do, since I don't use those @#%$% MAT files, is I open everything to a temp directory and then I change Texture names and such by adding "PhilC" or whomever to the front so I know who made it. Much easier to put all the textures for the halter dress in one folder, the pants in another, the shoes in still another,etc. Only things I don't change are the .obj filenames and folders and the .cr2 names. I do the same things with props and such so I can keep track of what goes with which and who made it. Gawd, I would kill for subdirectories in the libraries. sigh Kate the semi-organized
