    Hi fellow people wearing skin and hair!

    My name is Theo, I've been using blender 3d as a hobby for about 2 years now and have gotten pretty good at it recently.

    I found this site a couple of weeks ago and was in awe of what you could do here. I uploaded a couple of models in WSF and was planning on printing some full color models, but every time I try to do full color I get a message from Shapeways about there being no texture in the file I uploaded. But I'm 100% positive that the texture is in the zip file!

    So can someone tell me if it is even possible to upload a color file using Blender 2.58? Or maybe there's something else I'm missing?

    Do not answer this if you have no skin or hair. Thanks!
