How would I go about calibrating my monitor?  Is there a best way?

Also, how do I add a link to see a large size of the image?  I was able to do it on the last one but I have to admit, it was by accident and I don't know what I did.

Reggie68, I really enjoy your Penny renders.

I love the rain, except for something like Sandy, so I made this render.  Let me know what you think. On my screen it looks right, on my husband's it's way too light.  Not too sure what to do about that.

Thank you for the comments on my render, much appreciated.

UHF, the top was enjoy summer by 3d age, the jeans are cut off Jeanz.  The ground and the flowers are Lisa's.  The lighting was 3 meshlights.

Charley those gels look amazing!

Bob, your renders are looking great.

Penny as always, looks stunning in whatever she wears.

John, very interesting scene. I'm looking forward to seeing the finished one.

Doctor, your attention to detail is exceptional and the scene itself is terrific.

Thank you SO much Callad!  This is so generous of you.  I'm really looking forward to using them and when I do, I'll post a render.

Thank you again!

After reading your helpful suggestions I went and looked at my files one last time before I uninstalled everything and I found that I have two types of files for a lot of the entries.  Like this;

  Michael 5.dsf

  Michael 5.duf

   Troll.dsf

   Troll.duf

 Does anyone know why this is?  dsf was the daz 4 format, wasn't I?  Is duf

the daz 4.5?

I installed every file I ever had.  Is that why I have duplicates of most of my files?  I thought it was okay to reinstall without deleting the daz files first?  And I'm not sure what the genesis essentials are. 

Welllllll.........I found it in my content library.  I also found duplicates of most all my files.  I messed this up royally didn't I?  Should I just delete the directory and then reinstall everything again?

I'm in need of help.  I installed the latest daz version and then used the dim to install all my files.  I did not uninstall the files first.  It now tells me that it cannot find the genesis file.  I see a genesis.duf file, but it's not in a folder.  How can I fix this problem? Did I do something wrong? I don't want to install the lastest version of reality until I'm sure that daz is working properly.

It seems like quite a few of you like Daz 4.5 now and it appears to be working fairly well.  If that is the case I'd like to start using it, I have Daz 4.0 right now.

Is Daz 4.5 stable now and without a lot of bugs?  If so, do I uninstall D 4.0 and then install 4.5?  Also, do I have to have all my content in the same file folder as the Daz 4.5 studio is in?

I would also use the latest version of Reality. Would I uninstall the one I'm using and install the new one?

I've tried to search through the forums for these answers, but found it rather confusing. Then again, I'm confused alot ;)

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Callad, I once again followed your directions step by step.  It still won't work for me and I just can't figure out why.  Here is a snapshot of my window.  I used the node selector as instructed.  Hope this picture helps. 

Thank you for the help so far!  If  you click on this image you can see it better. 

Everyone is making such great renders and I'm still fooling around with stockings. 

Callad, I am following the tutorial you made for making the superhose fit.  I'm using the superhose too.  I never even knew about deformers until now!  I can create one for the pantyhose, which covers the thigh, but when I select the left shin and try to create a deformer, it won't do it and I get a message that I must select something within the scene that has geometry.  The shin has geometry doesn't it?  I'm not sure what to do now, the pantyhose is too loose at the shin even after adjusting the normal x, z, etc

I could really use some help, please?

Very very nice renders from everyone, I'm now inspired to do something.  Not sure what, but something!

Sharkey, are you texturing a dress in Blacksmith?  I'm a little confused about the reference to a second skin.  If it is a dress, your texture is great.
