Laurie, Your character is great... Dina's nose is still my biggest concern... I just DON'T like it... but your morphing (and probably texturig too) make it not so bad... I REALLY like her face profile... very cute. :)

AprilYSH, I'm not really delicate... it's a running joke I have with friends of mine... I'm a rather large intimidating guy (6'5" tall), so I tease people when they get snippy with me, and tell them I'm delicate, and they should be nice to me. I have pretty thick skin, and I generally know if someone is trying to be constructive rather than just mean... it does bother me when somone says something just to be mean though.

I'm not sure, but I think that the Chignon is basically a morphed version of the ponytail... I would need to double check... I know it's a "modified" version... so I'd actually be curious to see if a morph for one would work on the other... either way, PLEASE put that morph up, I've been trying to do the same thing, and I keep getting holes in bits (like the back of the neck), and I got frustrated and gave up... I just cheated and turned her head around so you couldn't see the bad bits. :) K-

You can do that with any figure really, I'm sure there are a few tutorials out there about using the grouping tool, I'm not sure if I can explain it really well. I don't know about any other 3d programs, hopefully someone else with see this post and be able to help you out. :) K-

I don't think there is a way to do it with poser... the cartoon style view just doesn't show textures... unfortunately, but understandably. There's a way to make something LOOK like it has some sort of texture... if you use the grouping tool and select polygons and assign a new material to them, you can change the color of that material and add a bit more detail/coloration than just one solid color.

My patent pending patches, come in a variety of sizes, including "standard" and "millineum". :) The "standard" size however can be used by anyone with slight modifications in size and position.

Good news Poser-Shop-A-Holics. I'm currently developing a set of patches that will increase your Poser-related-product resistance... simply apply to both eyes prior to visiting any site with poser products for sale, and it is guaranteed to stop your from purchasing any new products. Simply remove the patches when you've turned off your computer. Your credit card will thank you! (I'm one to talk... I spend WAY too much money on poser. Where'd I leave my patches...)

I don't mess around with the Hierarcy Editor (or joint editor) much, but I think you've got to set up the chain first... ie, parent the parts in the order that you want them to be first, then select the end point, and THEN the button won't be greyed out... though I could be completely wrong, like I said, I don't use it much. K-

I lucked out and go Magick as a birthday present... I love my co-workers! :)

Laurie, They look BETTER! :) Well maybe not better, but they're SO worth it!

Sheesh, and I thought it was bad that I always get 2.

I was messing around with the shadow cams last night, but didn't have too much time to really get in depth, but I did notice some variations... it's kind of funny when you switch to the shadow cam to make adjustments... everything is upside down. :)

I don't know any of the DragonballZ stuff, so I can't really help, but you may want to check at www.3d-cc.com I think they had a few DBZ characters... though I could be wrong...

MallenLane, I know on the light preset you included with the Hatchling Dragon (which has 23 lights... I think) doesn't take THAT long on my computer... it takes longer than most, but not quite that long... and my computer is only a 500Mhz 384MB of ram.
