P.S. I can't lay my hands on my 40 year old hardcover copy of 'The Human Figure in Motion' so I can't give you more precise answers The last time I looked at this book was 20-25 years ago (memory is the second thing to go, you know). I doupt that the shutter speeds were anything close to 1/6000th of a second, maybe 1/600th. In any case, photographic plates were not sensative enough in those days to re-act to such a short exposure. Walter

Muybridge did his human (and animal) motion studies in the 19th century (late 1800's) before movie cameras were invented. His set-up was a series of cameras set in a row and as his subjects moved past the cameras, the shutters were tripped one after the other. Each 'frame' is a single picture taken by one camera. Amazingly, in todays age of super-fast photography ranging in the hundreds to even thousands of frames per second, his work is still a valid tool for studends of motion and animation. Hope this helps and answers your question. Walter

It's probably the default lights... One of the strength of poser is that you can modify and adjust texture colors by applying material colors. The material colors combine WITH the texture to give you new colors, they do not "overrule". Use this with a degree of restraint. A strong material color will appear to overide a soft texture color... Walter

You have to set the object color to white for all the materials. Click on Render in the menu bar at the top, then click on Materials... Select all the materials (skin, nipple, toenails, etc.) and change the Object color to white for each material. The material color will strongly influence the texture map color. Leave everything else alone for now. Plenty of time to experiment later...Hope this helps. Walter

Hey BillyG, I think the 'DELETE' shows up only on your screen. Nobody else sees it. Since it's your messege, the 'DELETE' is there for you to delete your message if you wish... I think..

I think Schlabber means 'awfull', like in 'full of awe', or 'awesome' (not 'awfull' as used by Americans, meaning bad). I fully concur, she, like all your work, is awesome!

This is one of the best high heels womans shoes I've seen, Can't wait and thanx in advance for sharing with us

'Anyway, I thought it looks pretty nice, even at this stage' is an understatement. I just bought (Yesterday) your Hollywood hair pak from Zygote and I thought IT was terrific, (It is!) but this looks better yet. You gonna make me spend more money, aint'cha (just kidding), can't wait 'tll it's available (at Zygote or Renderosity or something, I presume, 'couse you're NOT gonna give work and talent like yours away for free!)

Photo Shop, Paint Shop Pro and Corel Photo Paint all will allow you to stretch and re-proportion an image. I'm sure there are lots of other apps, free and reasonably priced, that will also do the same thing. Generally speaking, keep in mind that the pricyer(sp?) the app, the more features it's likely to have that will let you stretch, shrink, re-proportion, adjust color, contrast, etc. of selected local areas of your image.

Try www.capsces.com. I think the 9lives cat morphs are there. They'll turn the P3/P4 cat into all kinds of other animals like a racoon, fox, rabbit, etc...very cool.
