When saving a realistic sky preset as a cbr file, I get a star as thumbnail. How may I do to get the real sky image thumbnail? Any tips? Thanks

 Carrara doesn't do this automatically for anything other than objects - I don't know why. There is a hack for it but I don't remember what it is. I'll see if I can find it.

Mark,
I can get a thumbnail with a .car scene file with the render preview selected. That doesn't work when saving the sky preset into.cbr...

Do a PM to Tim Payne. I think he is the one who made the free ones available for Carrara--WITH Thumbnails!
