As far as your current problems go, there is nothing to be changed in the .cr2 itself, and that's why you can't do it on your PC. The Mac stores information about both the file type (format) and the creator of any document independent of its name - similar to your PC keeping track of creation dates outside of the real file content. Because there is no such information within the PC file system, I can't write Maconverter for PC, and you can't modify the .cr2 as long as it is on your PC disk. Apart from this, there are significant differences in the way how Poser remembers textures. This caused crashs in Poser3 days (and Maconverter has an option to remove it), but it is now handled much better in my separate Macinstaller tool, which is able to fix it (as well as some more magic tricks...). Anyway, this has nothing to do with your recent problems. I currently allow to pass on my tool personally, so whenever you know someone specific who urgently needs it, you are allowed to send him/her a copy - but people are not allowed to put it on their website for anonymious download, or to distribute it by CD/whatever. Nevertheless, it's probably best to simply pass on my homepage, this way people will also get the newest version whenever they need it: http://www.main-rheiner.de/homepage/soft.rabbit Cheers, MartinC
