Well, the subject says it all. I'm wondering how large I should make the texture for my poser characters to keep nice detail and avoid the appearance of pixels (when they get really big when applied to the model). And through all this, I'd also like to keep a reasonable size of no more than 2MB (preferrably less than 1MB, but I can bare up to 2MBs). Thanks in advance. ~JKS

well, it depends what are you trying to show. if you wanna do a real close-up on a face, you'll need some 2000x2000 pixels map and a good bump map also in that size. for a body details it's the same, you must experiment to find the best solution. if you want to make close-ups i'd do it with vicky, 'cause she's less "edgy"... but then you'll need two maps for body and the face. you could do a crowd scene with far smaller map size and you can work with posette.
