Thanks. Actually I thought Curls de Lux did have at least some morphs from the preview images. Now I just have to figure out which to spend October's discretionary income on.

That-is-great-RenaPD. When-is-Mike's-next-garment-apeearing?

VirtualSite: Doesn't it worry you that the pod people seem so fond of Mike? (Come to think of it, there hasn't been a Backstage Blooper for a while...sorry some one at the door)

I keep the textures for freebies in a folder in a textures folder in the library folder (:Runtime:character:Figures:Web - Michael:Textures:Thingy:Thingy.jpg say) and it usually works OK. I do it this way to keep the readme and stuff with the figure.

Oh well (kicks self). Actually it was Crucial, so I wasn't expecting cheap - it was more the scale of the rise I was commenting on rather than the absolute value.

For DPI just change it in your image editor, with "Resample" or the equivalent off. It makes no difference to the image quality, just specify the size you want in pixels. RAM isn't that cheap now - I just bought a third 256MB SDRAM for my new motherboard for 75, last autumn I got two the same for 50 - 300% inflation!

Ghastley usually puts readmes, but they're called readme.dress (or .harness or whatever) so they aren't immediately obvious

Could be that the file was created on a Mac and has the odd characters on the first line that I've sometimes seen - leftover resource fork?

There's a demo in freestuff, so you could test it.

Tailor is a stand-alone application, so as long as the OBJ and CR2 files stay the same (and by the way cross platform ZIPs are set up they do) you should be OK; I've just bought Tailor and in a couple of tests it worked OK on my PIII 450. Ah, it does need OpenGL support in the graphics - does anyone know if VPC alloes that? (My video card is an ATI Rage whatever, the PC version of the video for the original iMacs, so it should be there in hardware - just a question of whether VPC can access it.)

Isn't there a program called VirtualPC for the Mac? If so could you use it to run Tailor directly?

We've had as-definite-as-computerly-possible assurances that the exisiting items will work with P5, just probably not with the new features (or at least not fully). Since it will take a while for creators and users to learn the new stuff (compare out-of-the-box P4 with DAZ stuff, or good free stuff like Sergemarck's or Kozaburo's) there will be, at least, a period following launch when you are likely to prefer working with P4-style legacy items to the new features.

And it's going to be on the next PC Format too.

31MB? EEK - can we get it on the installment plan?
