I'd personally go for the Leduc, but it's always a personal preference.

Don't get bent out of shape about no response: just makes everyone not want to respond even more. ;)

Hey Locke any idea about the images not showing in GMax, or the vertices not having dots?

Are the images in JPG form or BMP?  They need to be in BMP format so Gmax can use them.

As for the vertices, Customize --> Customize User Interface --> Colors (tab) --> Elements --> Geometry -->Vertex Ticks.

See if you can play with that to get it to work.  If not, check out a couple of other forums.  Someone else may understand this more than I.
