Look up Doctor Geep's tutorials at Ebonshire (see link), download the P5 Material Room one, and you should be good to go. Page 5 shows how to add a 2D image map as a texture, and that's what you need to do with your JPEG image. The procedure is similar for using an image map as a transparency map or bump map. Don't forget to check out the other great tutorials while you're there.

You're welcome. ;) I started with Poser 3 and 4, where the materials are set with a relatively simple dialogue box having few options. My first sight of the material room in P5 was daunting to say the least - "what is all this stuff?" - and it wasn't immediately apparent how to do something simple like apply a texture map to something. Now I wouldn't look back - the node system is very flexible and powerful.
