Thanks Mark! 

Quote - As CFC noted above, you have the option to save them internally (embedded) with the shader in Carrara.

How do you do that?

Also, I still don't understand why my shader folders are empty.  Or is that what the problem is...you have to save them "internally (embedded)" in order for them to show up as a .cbr when you're browsing through your folders in Windows Explorer?
