I have already explained this ten times in this forum. Here again: 1. You can perfectly organize your materials in Vue. In the MATERIALS folder, create as many new subfolders you like and put your saved materials in it. Then, in Vue, right-clickin the material window and select LOAD MATERIAL from the list. When the material browser window opens, click NEW at its bottom, locate the sub-folder you've created inside your MATERIAL folder. Open it and choose ANY of the mat files in there. Then click OK and again OK. Now your new folder shows up in the material list. Do this for every sub-folder you have created. 2. In passing by FILE from the Material browser window, you ONLY can see the images of the *.mat files in the lower left corner, no bitmaps will show up. If you want to use a bitmap as a mapping, insteed of right-clicking in the material window, just double-click in it, select MAPPED PICTURE and LOAD. Hope this helps. Guitta
