I am kind of new to Carrara, but I am not new to 3d model building and animation. I have recently built a frog for an animation short I am working on, and I am haveing trouble trying to create a realistic texture for it. I would like to create a UV map in UVMapper, but I don't seem to be able to do that without taking the frog apart (legs, arms, body, etc.) Can anyone tell me a way to do this? Or is there a procedure I can follow? Is there even a way I can name the individual parts and texture map them? thanks for your help!

You can name areas in the vertex modeler of Carrara which can then be textured separately. Twillis has a tutorial on the resource CD which has some description of how to do this. I would also do a search here in the forum on texturing paying special attention to a puzzle thread she wrote. If you think you want to buy the CD, wait a week for the next version to be released. -Kix

Here's a link to the web version. Check out Stages 3 and 4; I think you might be able to adapt them to your problem.
