Hi... again ( i will get the hang of this...promise ;-) , i'm trying to take a uv snaphot of my well... uv map but when i try and save it it comes up with the error: invalid output format: tga ( or what ever file i have chosen to save as ) the only one that works is iff format but that won't open in photoshop.

Not sure what the problem is, but you can use this photoshop plug-in from Alias to open IFF in Photoshop.

which is worth getting because depth channels are only available in iff format files. So if you wanna use them in photoshop you will need that plugin user added image
