If I modeled a briefcase full of money as a Poser prop... what do I need to do so that I don't get into trouble with the US Treasury Department? Or is this a bad idea?

I don't think you would have a problem, but just in case I would probably use similar markings but not the actual markings of the bill in question (ie use a pic of Albert Einstein instead of George Washington). I do know that if one were to use a dollar bill in advertising, the size would have to be either half sized, or twice the size if the bill pictured is very similar.

Thanks, Cinema1954, I guess I'm okay then... It will not be printable... and the texture map of the currency will have the center portion deleted (because there is a strip of paper to hold the stack of bills together anyway). I will be creating a single sided texture (no reverse textures), and will be changing the overall color of the image. Whew!
