David, You're absolutely right about saving sanity by deleting everything unnecessary as _soon_ as possible! After my initial test rendering, I generally save all temporary objects and then delete them. (Especially with this method of creating maps, since one tends not to try to minimize face counts to get super smooth curves.) BTW, the easiest way to save and delete a set of objects: First, Alt-N, then select your set of objects, then save the selected objects only to a new name with "Save Selected" from the file menu. Finally, choose Modify/Object/Delete "Selected", and you're done. Quick & clean! JKJ
