Well, this is how it is... It seems that I have part of a character, merged the verteses, etc., but after having sub-dived it (to make sure I merged everthing) and presed *undo* there is a subdiv-looking mesh right on top of the poly (shaded) shape. When I delete either, the other is deleted. It doesn't *seem* to be doing anything, but the extra mesh is rather confusing.

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it much.
Thanks all!
