I forgot to mention, but to load a texture into the UV panel, all you need to do is drag-and-drop the texture map that you want into that panel.

Okay, sorry for being unspecific. So I wanted to use an axe x file. Whenever she moves her hand, the axe stays in that one place. I know I did something retarded, but I hope I explained it enough that you can understand, if I didn't, I'll send you a picture.

The axe should have a bone. If not you'll have to make one and weight it to the axe - but usually when you import an .x file into the pmd editor, the editor will create one and it's probably called "center" - don't mix this up with the original center bone.
Rename it and associate the bone to the wrist bone of whichever hand is holding the axe. This will resolve your problem.

It's a good thing I already learn something like this on my own, though it's still not perfect. But, "you'll never know if ever forget" my friends always say.
Thanks for the tutorial. Now I can review on what I have learns so far

There are some really good tutorials specifically on bones lying around the DA galleries. Just search for them (or look on Citrus-Smoothie [link] )

"shrink it until it is only a single pixel" Man that slider explanation was very useful~
I need to test it now~

If you use the topmost button you can slide in all directions at once so use that to do your shrinking.

For something so important, PMD does a good job at hiding all the critical tools

Yup, it took me some time to get used to the program since not all you need is "there" but you have to find it yourself.
