Sorry if this is a newbie question, but I can't seem to find it in the Poser manual. How can I accurately convert a .bum file back into a .bmp or a .jpg? I've tried just grayscaling the .bum, but I end up with something that looks more like it's been fed through an Emboss filter. I'm not doing this to try to break copyrights, it's just that I recently upgraded to Poser Pro Pack and I'd like to be able to use the smaller .jpg files. Unfortunately, not all of the models I've acquired came with anything but a .bum bumpmap. I don't want to violate anyone's copyright, so if this is against the rules I won't bother. Sorry for the trouble, and thanks in advance. -Katoran
