Are they the folks that do Maniquin? I may have an app that could use graphics like that. I work for a company that writes scheduling and operative record tracking software. We have talked about including a "picture" of the human body for tracking incision sites etc. Has anyone looked at Maniquin? Thanks in advance ( I am contemplating purchasing 3D studio soon ) Tom Novotny Enterprise Systems, INC.

I use mannequin for the application i am working on. Mannequin gives a pretty good basic surface of human forms. It has a database engine in the package that allows you to input different parameters such as height, weight, sex, age, and racial characteristcs. The main purpose of the program is for biomechanics and ergonomics. In 3d studio there is an example of one of there manniquin in the 3ds mesh files. With a little texture mapping you can put together a pretty decent rendition of what you may need. It also comes with a disk that shows you how to import manniquin into 3ds and do all of the necessary links. A really good contact person who is very helpful is Debra Casha from mannequin at 516-752-3568 ext 55 Hope this helps Sam
