Why not go with a layered .jpg? save the file as a .jpg at a setting of 12 (100%) and under 'format options' choose > baseline ("standard") <. Then take a look at the quality and file size. It will be a .jpg that is virtually uncompressed in color quality, yet much smaller in file size. .jgp does not support alpha channels however. If I'm wrong then flame me. Also in the rules for selling Poser textures sets there must be a supplied MAT pose or .cr2 "with" the download (here at Renderosity) But from what I saw of your post, I will more than likely buy it! Aleks, please tell me where you read that .psd has "built in lzw compression"? I would really like to read that, I can't find it in PS 7 help. And I bet you, any image opener can read and show a .tif file. Alex
