Thanks Acadia!
I'll probably have more questions later...hehe

Thanks everyone!!!!!!!!!!!!
Acadia, I looked up your link that you provided in your post and am really interested in the one about skin texturing but you didnt go into detail alot. Where do you find the template for the head to what you add the photo texture to? Is this in the poser directory or is UV mapping necessary?

Oh sorry I forgot, Im using this photo as a texture source. Any ideas

Thanks Nevare,
Now A new question- how do you do a bump map?

I have another question!!!
Do the texture maps from 3d.sk.com fit the poser figures and is there any conversion system to make them fit if they dont?  Also how much is it to subscribe to the site. Is it really expensive..........hope not!!!!!

Cool. Very good textures and beautiful character.

Thanks Unicornst I'll do that!!!!!!!!!!!
Thanks guys for all the help.

I still cant find miki 1.0!!!!!!!!!!!!! There must be a download link somewhere. Why would e-frontier just get rid of her at least Daz studios dont get rid of their previous figures such as m2 when they upgraded to m3. OOOOOOOOOOOOOOHH frustration!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ok thanks everyone,
It all sounds so difficult now!!! LOL. By the way i have no plans of putting my character for sale or anything> i just want to create my own. Thanks for all your help. Also does anyone know where else I can purchase high quality characters similiar to shahara's and plus 3d's.

thanks for your response IsaoShi LOL
I do know i wont be able to produce work as great as shahara anytime soon but I want to start texturing now and build my way up and would like poinrers to help me  to eventually get to the standards of high quality artists. I would like to know which product would be best to use photo resources like photoshop or something similiar as i want to purchase one now.
