I have been doing poser for like 2 months now and I finialy bought Michale and a bunch of textures but I dont know how to use the textures so it looks real the eye brows on my poser look messed up and it dosent look nearly as good as it should so if any of you could tell me how to use a texture properly and tell me how to fix my problem I would really appreciate it.. Ps. Look at that pic it looks horible I need help bad.

I don't own Michale but it looks like no texture is applied to the eyebrows and maby the lips too? What are the 'ghosts' flying around his face?? Click on Render -> Materials and go to the eyebrows (and/or lips) and see what is applied. You may also want to tweak the assigned "color" and "highlight" colors for better blending of custome textures. Some custome textures will also require certain Morphs to make them fit correctly, usually indicated in the author's readme files. Someone who owns Michale could probably better analize this pic for you........nice texture however..

Go through the materials texture area on poser and make sure the each part of Mike has either the head or body texture applied to it correctly, and the default color is white, or else Poser will ignore the texture and use the color selected.

I think you need to assign the texture map and an eyebrow trans map to his upper eyebrows.

1.) set all material colors to white 2.) set the transparensy min & max, of the eyebrows, upper eyebrows & eyelashes to 100% and the falloff to 0% 3.) apply the texture map for the head to all body parts (check the "texture changes apply to entire figure") 4.) uncheck the box for texture changes applying to everything 5.) apply the body texture to the skinbody, nipples, finger & toenails and the genitals 6.) apply the transmap to the eyebrows, upper eyebrows & eyelashes (in the transparency map box on the lower right) 7.) save in your character file once you have everything the way you want it. this should cover everything step by step.
