I've discovered this while working on the HDRI image, and I want to know if anyone else has encountered this same problem. I've set a basic sphere to try the various effects. Found an image on the net, applied to the sphere. When I tried to save, bang! "General failure, an unexpected error has occurred." After having banged my head on this for hourse, I realized that the only thing could be the filename. So I used PS to convert the image. Result: filename: 2001-07-29-Whidby-Island-House-Interior.jpg -- error filename: HouseInterior.jpg -- ok Same identical image, only with the name changed. Does Bryce have problems in handling long filenames? I didn't know that, and thought that maybe could be useful to others. Stefano
