agiel, thanks for the welcome to the forum, you'll probably be seeing a lot of me here. I am in the process of checking out the 'Backroom' section now. Thanks for the help folks!

Thanks for your help and found the 'ghost' thingie to not display the other models. There are some good ones and will eventually get some, I'm sure.

There are a lot of things in that 'Objects' sub-directories. Are they all replaced with items from the CD.zip file?

Thanks for the welcome .. I may start anew and just install this on my desktop which has more ram and is running XP. Vista seems to be a ram hog :)

Still struggling, but getting there and thanks all!

I just purchased Michael today 11/23 .. does anyone know if I need the update? Or would the file I downloaded include it? Couldn't find an answer on the Zygote site. TIA deanna

I personally, would do the manual install. Tried the auto and it really messed up things. I couldn't export in the *.obj or *.3ds formats. I ended up uninstalling Poser and re-installing from the CD and have yet to install the update. (I did have some customized folders.) deanna

Thank you for the help. I thought I did invert it, but I should test using a different image. The trees don't really show the difference that much. Thanks again .. Deanna

I think I got it to work, Diane, following Spike's "Here's what you need to do" - think I inverted it, but the trees in front are blurred and the furthest tree is clear. I'm a newbie in this group and don't see an attachment tool. Deanna
