Well, here is my next render with 2 posers. Because I am a dolt and didnt save the original way I set this up, Im screwed. As you can see the arms look blurry. I rendered this in firefly and ended up with Jagged arms and had to try in post work to fix them, with no freaking luck. *sighs* This looks retched. I left the settings the way they are with firefly, is there a better way to set things so that this crap doesnt happen?

We could be more helpful if we knew what your render settings were that caused the problem. If you saved your .pz3 scene file, can you post a screen shot of the settings? If you did indeed save the scene, you can render again with settings that'll lead to a nicer-looking result. Still, I must say, this render is off to a great start. I really like what you're doing with the poses, interaction of the two figures, and the flow of the clothing, so don't despair, hope is not lost. Tell us a bit more about what went wrong and I'm sure people here will have helpful advice.

It Looks like your image was saved out as a .jpg at extremely low quality. When exporting the image as a jpg, select 100% for image quality. Another thing to remember... fine gradients don't compress well. Add monochromatic noise in photoshop and then fade it to almost zero but not zero. Also, sometimes poser over anti-aliases. You can try rendering a larger image unanti-aliased. When you finish your image and resize it down, it will smooth out. I may be mistaken as to what you did, but the result looks like compression. Great image btw. Anton

No compression, that is actually a texture over top of the picture, two of them, to add the weird color. I think it was just he default setting on Firefly, what ever it is set to. So bummed, cuz me can't fix now. I wont be able to line up James on the right with the painting of the clothes I already did. I knew I should have used the poser 4, they always render nicer, dont know why. XO, will see if I did save the first pz file, I dont think I did. My head isnt working.

I saved your image and looked. Photoshop reads it at level6 quality. I usually save image at a 9. I ran a action I made on the image to try and undo some of the compression. We might be having a hard time telling because the image you posted is lower quality than the original.

I'm paranoid and save at about 12 for jpgs. One question though, what format did you save your render in? The best formats are png and tiff if you are going to add and subtract out layers and backgrounds.

I'm paranoid and save at about 12 for jpgs. Absolutely. You can always bump the compression quality and file size down for web or e-mail, but you can never get it back up again.

I saved as a Jpeg, didnt have this problem with my last render...because I used poser 4 on that one. This one was firefly. I didnt save the file, oh woe is me. No biggie, next one though I will use these tips and see if it is any better. Thank you guys for the suggestions, it really helps alot!

Have you thought about saving as tiff? You have full resolution,no compression and then can do you jpeg in whatever program you trust. I've never had good luck saving jpegs out of Poser. Emily beautiful composition, by the way.
