***********  NUDITY WARNING **************

HI I am pretty new to the whole rendering process ...

I am starting to try to render skin with bump map applied.

Can anyone tell me why, when a gray scale of the regular skin  texture map is used, I am getting crazy black ruts in the rendrered image?

I should tell you that this is a very dumb-ass simple settings firefly render, yes there is ray tracing ( slightly)

The funny thing is, I way way modified the black and white levels of my particular area I was working on  (nipple) and it came out OK -  but the rest of the body, like near throat and between breasts, has the crazy dark ruts - and in those areas it is just a gray scale of the regular text map ( probably extremely close to plain  127/127/127 for most of the skin)

Thanks

Oh yeah BTW  does anyone know how to force the attached image to be BELOW  the text in a post?

Thanks
