I just got word from steve and he opened the pz3 just fine, after canceling the bum request ( I never include bums in poser format as they are huge files to download..). Please make sure that you all have the 3 obj files provided by steve in the PW directory of your geometries, and just ignore the cr2 provided from poserworld. Just open the pz3 and then save the suite (figure 2) as a new cr2 of your own. That's a way that works fine around... Please DO let me know how this works for you! After santa is loaded just recreate all bums in poser4 to get the full effect of the figure.. I keep my fingers crossed as I can't understand this mystery...steve opens it, I open it, we share the same files...this is driving me crazy! :o( renapd

I was just notified by steve that we named the zips exactly the same and one may be overwritting the other...I keep my fingers crossed that it's only that! renapd

I had one more complaint and honestly I don't know what's wrong with him...I will look at it though tonight when I get home from the office. No Diane, I don't use BMP but JPGs...I suspect it has something to do with steve combining both figures when he sent over his suit and I had to split them apart once more...please, be patient as there's nothing I can do from here at the office... :o( renapd

I only wish she looked this good when she got older...why did she have to wear long dresses then & how could she let herself go and gain all that extra weight? To torture me and steve, that's why! LOL! renapd

LOL! Now I know why I never bothered with animation before..it's even more time consuming than anything else! :o) I only wish I had the time to dedicate to this area as well, but no such luck at the moment! :o( So I'd better stick to character creations and textures where I can work fast and efficiently and come up with results in much less time, BUT...this is something that I DO plan to look further during my summer vacation! :o)That's a promise! renapd

Nothing would be possible without Eric's unlimited source of morphs! Thanks Traveler! :o) I'll take care of all that tonight and forward Mrs Claus to steve...the Santa has already been dressed! LOL! It's his wife's turn now! :o)Hopefully, both will be ready by the end of this weekend Got to go now as this is stolen office time...LOL! renapd

OK then...I guess I'll have to spawn a morph for the morph..LOL! but rounder beard you will get! Magnets here I come!:o) Does everybody else agree on the size of the glasses to get increased? :-) renapd

Jack, just improvise a bit! Make a trans map to hide the fur on Nerd's gloves and you are there! :o) I'd love to get my hands on Hokusai's longer ones too, so I do hope he reads this post for the sake of all of us! :o) renapd

OK Colm...I'll do just right that! :o) Straight to the animation forum! :o) Thanks everybody! renapd

You are most welcome to do it Jack! :-) Thanks! :-) renapd

Thanks for all your help! :o) I'm glad to see that you all realized what I was trying to do...just trying to warn the community of this trap...it was sad enough to see a few already caught in it - dear ones too! I have no idea if the offer was similar to them or that man considered just ME an easy prey because I live so far away in Greece...that's why I felt I have to write all this down, my inner voice wouldn't make peace with myself unless I made sure that I had made my best to warn the rest in time, as tactfully as possible under the circumstances! Thank you all for listening!:o) renapd

Bloodsong, I'd like to take this opportunity and thank you for your wonderful swans! This image would have been impossible without them..they are swans indeed in my dream and ever since I downloaded your beautiful model, I knew this is where it will be used eventually! Thanks again!:-) renapd

Great texture & the chest reminds too much of the poser3 Adam texture! (not that I mind a bit!) :-) I'd suggest you clone a hairy part of the chest to the legs too, using some transparency with your brush for the full effect! Definately post it! It's about time we stop feeling missing the one and only Adam texture! :-) renapd

Not any longer! LOL! I want to thank you all for this warm welcome! It feels so good to be among cherished friends! :-) renapd

despite the water, despite the leg angle or whatever else they find wrong with it, all I have to say is one thing! Excellent artistic work Al! I love this picture! The lighting is fantastic and atmospheric, the lady is sexy and earthy, a truly awesome image that I think you should post to the forum gallery! Bravissimo! :o) renapd
