Way back in the day before skin textures got so complicated and I wanted to apply a tattoo to a character, I could open the character's texture jpeg in ArtWeaver (free graphics program), then, using the text tool, type a dingbat font onto the jpeg at the point where I wanted the tattoo to be, save the jpeg with a new name, then go to the Poser material room and replace the existing texture with my newly created texture and presto - my character now has a tattoo!

But now when I try this (though in the material room everything looks fine and I can see my tattoo (dingbat) on the character just where it is supposed to be) but when I render, the body part where I changed the texture - example: "hip" render's green with no texture at all.

Anybody know what I'm doing wrong (with Poser - the other stuff is personal)?
