I saw an absolutely stunning texture for V4 in the Marketplace a couple of days ago and was planning to buy it on the spot- until I realized the highlights in the promo images were on the texture itself, on the forehead, between the eyes and above the upper lip. Useless. Highlights should come from the light source in your image, not the texture map. I was also looking for some eye textures for V4, but every one I've looked at has reflections on the eye map itself. I don't want reflections on the eye map, I want to use the lighting in whatever program I'm rendering in to create my own. Maybe I'm in the minority, but I won't be buying any textures or eye maps with the highlights or reflections built in. Coldrake
