Help - a new character

Okay, this is essentially the first character I've made -- and I need help... -grin-

When I convert from NURBS, to Poly, and then finally to Sub-divs, and then move the verteses in Sub-divs, these cracks form on the edges of the model.

It only seems to be when I move the finer verteses (1 and 2) rather than the coarser ones.

If someone could help me I'd really appreciate it! I don't know if it's my settings, or what I'm doing in NURBS and poly mode, but this is kind of getting to me.
Thank you!

Yes! another mac user!

Anyway, make sure you merged all the vertices in the poly mesh. Also, sometimes subd's do that. If you render, do they still show up?
