OK! Heres what i fail to see, and any answers would be really appreciated....as usual :) I am curtrently using poser4 and mimic to create "talking Heads" to act as ivatars in romotiona CD-ROM's yeh? BUT icant see to figure something out! When i add a texture to say....erm....the hair for example and then i render it it looks fine BUT whn i then try and create a series of keyframes to make an animation it loses that texture. Maybe im just not understand asis should, but its really really hard to learn i think :O( I want to be a master and i want it now (stamps his feet). 2 - Lets supposing im using "Posette"/ Nude female and ive creted a pose that im happy with yeh? Ok, what i want to do now is somehow create my own texture so that i can paint onto her body or smething and then make an animation out of it which obvioulsy has that texture throughout. How do i access the texture file so that i can export it into Photoshop, paint my own colours etc onto it and then re-import it back into Poser and apply it. I seem to be posting a few questions on here recently and i just hope nobody gets sick of me! Sorry to be a pain anyway..........but thanks to all those who take the time out to reply and stuff, itsd great :) Ive used forumns before, and at the risk of sounding like a right muppet.....this one is slighlty different, everyone actually wants to help you if they can.......fantastic....many thanks! :O)
