Thanks a lot, I will try all of that. I see what you guys are saying, sounds like it will work. I wish i didn't have to go to all the trouble for each scene, cause some have a bunch of textures. Oh well, but thanks lot, huge help.
And yeah J.S. they are .tiff files, so what you said about them being troublesome to open seems true.

The other thing I noticed might be a mistake on alias' part. On one DVD, the texture files are not included on the DVD. If you explore the DVD it just says, Lesson 1...ect, and the Scene. No texture files are actually present on the DVD. And when the error message says it can't find it, it says the file path is like desktop/bobgundu (he is the guy who did the tutorial) /.... So it seems alias was just using them off his desktop, which obviously my computer can't browse.
Thanks

David
