      TIP : When I import a texture or material from my Hard Drive, I change the label to say what that texture (material) is for. For example....I import (to Wood) a wood texture and want to use it in my model. When I use that wood texture, for a wall, I label the texture in IN MODEL "wall". That way I can find that exact texture easily. Especially if I want to edit that texture it's easier to find (in the IN MODEL box). Same thing with colors. Editing a color from COLORS. If that (edited) shade of red is used for a cushion.... I re-label that texture CUSHION instead of color code 038. Again.....if I want to edit that particular object in my model, I just look for the appropriate color/label in IN MODEL. garystan
