Thank you. Bummer!

Hey Ego, are you sure he's not your alter ego? ;)

Hmmmm! The picture is cool. It looks like a top down view of a sphere over a water type texture, with a light over the sphere pointing down so some of the water is a bright blue circle and the outer edge is darker. Then it looks like you busted out Knoll Lens Flare Pro for the bitchin' lens flare in the center. Then again, I may be smokin' crack. Oh, wait! I am! ;)

I really dig that grooved metal ball.

Yes, let's not mock someone's work like that. It's childish behavior. I think it is fine to make fun of the announcement from the Great and Powerful Oz since it so obviously smacks of self-importance but we should not go down into the gutter.

Bizarre. I know that's not a suggestion but that's about all I have to say.

You might want to change the scale, give it a little bump, and then turn the ambience waayyyy down. It's very pale. BUT... dude, I really like your structure. May I live there? :)

?????????? Perhaps a post got deleted in there somewhere. Anyway, I would call this one "I Think I See the Boobies"

What's with the big boobed woman falling into the canyon? Not familiar with that one. :) "You can take a big boobed woman to a canyon, but you, uh, can't drop her down... because of the boobs. Yeah! Yeah! That's it!"

I don't get it. Help!

Okay, so either NO one knows where the extra textures are, or this was an extraordinarily dumb question.

I'll take a stab at it. Sometimes Poser exports "extra" body components that aren't visible in Poser. For example you may get an extra abdomen area. So not only do you get nasty bits sticking out here and there but the texture doesn't map properly. My first suggestion would be to look at your list of meshes and see if you have some dupes. Ctrl-clicking (on a Mac) in the area will produce a pop-up window of all the pieces under your cursor. Select them one at a time and see if the offending object is one of them. Hide it and rerender to see if you got the right one.

Unfortunately Bryce cannot make objects physically appear and disappear. Like the previous writers mentioned you need tricks. The transparency one works very well but if you don't want it to fade in and out you need one more trick. Make sure that the last frame before the object is supposed to appear is keyframed so there is no transition effect between 100% trans and 100% vis. I had to use this many, many times and although it it a royal bugger it works.

Remember that alot of 3D files expand tremendously in RAM when they are loaded. The file size megs and RAM usage megs are not a 1:1 ratio. I have over 300 megs of RAM and can still run out of memory with really complex models that have a fairly small file size.

I second what RimRunner said. Good texturing on the two islands in back. The furthest one looks quite legit.
