The ole dress is invisible prior to render... I know I am probably missing doing something very simple but can't think what.. As you can see in the image it renders alright.

Helen, The polygons of the dress are reversed. bring your object into your modeling program and flip the polygon faces around. If the dress has a low poly count, there is a utility in the free stuff that makes the polys double faced as well. Works great but I can't remember who made it :( Hope this helps Styxx

Thanks Styxx.. Muchly appreciated.. :) I am off to flip... ;)

I have a lot of files that do that. It really doesn't matter, because you're going to render anyway, and it fixes in the render. It's really an aesthetic thing and only appears on the screen that way. As long as it renders all there, you're OK. Melanie

It's a good idea to create your Poser OBJs without normals. None of the standard figures from the geoemtries folder have them.

Thanks all..
