Oops, my mistake. I see subdiv keeps the same amount of faces.

Try this for subdiv.

Awesome!!!!!!!!!

I would try a much simpler approach like this.

Maya Back To Default Settings / This is really useful

Go to: HD /Users/<username>/Library/Preferences/Autodesk/maya/2010/prefs. Delete Prefs and Restart Maya.

This will take you back to Maya...

Yes I do. But it's okay I figured it out now, thanks.

Glad I could help Vicky. From one newbie to another. :)

Actually I do click on a new Lambert first, but thanks for pointing it out anyway. :)

In hypershade, you have 1 Lambert, then click on File and load jpg. Now middle mouse click on File and drag onto Lambert. Your cursor turns to a little white fist, a drop down menu appears before you...

Click, here, here and here, load jpgs to material.

Cheers
