Anyway, thanks for the suggestions hammer, really appreciate it
EDIT: and to fix that, I tried Polygons > Delete current UV set, but it didn't want to delete the default set (map1), so I selected all the UVs of the set I wanted and did Polygons > Copy UVs to UV Set > map1 and they overwrote the existing ones. All good now!
Hope this helps someone else who has a similar problem too.

Another student modelled and textured the violin, so I give full credit there.
Let me know what you think.

One thing I noticed when rendering was that the first render looked drastically different on each of my two monitors. I'll have to fix the gamma and color on my monitors for sure.
I also found that saving as different file types produced quite different results as well, which I thought was weird and frustrating. What difference does it make when you change the file type in the render globals, when you have to go file, save as... in the render view? Is that only for animation and stuff?

the second one does seem really dark, and the harp kind of blends in with the curtain
i think that's what you use a back light for, to brighten the edges of the harp a bit, it's totally unrealistic i think, but it's what i see people do.. or at least read what people do... i never notice a backlight unless someone tells me so far....
are you talking about saving things out as gif, png, jpg, etc?Originally posted by stwert

if you are then the 'different results' is expected because they are all encoded differently and encode different things
or are you talking about something else?
when you select what sort of image you want in the global render settings that affects the render preview and what comes out in a batch render.
the images that appear in your images/tmp folder (assuming you used default project directories) will appear in the format chosen in the global render settings
that's a "Ch" pronounced as a "K"
Computer skills I should have:
Objective C, C#, Java, MEL. Python, C++, XML, JavaScript, XSLT, HTML, SQL, CSS, FXScript, Clips, SOAR, ActionScript, OpenGL, DirectX
Maya, XSI, Photoshop, AfterEffects, Motion, Illustrator, Flash, Swift3D

I actually do have backlights for the harp (and violin in the second render), or rim lights I think they're called sometimes. You can see it on the right side of the upper post especially, but I could up the intensity a bit more to make them stand out more.
Yeah, I was talking about tga and tiff and png and stuff.
So, if you render something with .iff in the render globals, it will actually look different than if you render with .tga in the render globals, even before you save to a disk?? That seems odd to me somehow.when you select what sort of image you want in the global render settings that affects the render preview and what comes out in a batch render.
