In the upper left hand corner of Blender, select 'Render', then 'Render Image'. Make sure your camera is set up first.

Then in the lower left, select 'Image', the 'Save as Image'.

I can try and help some with texturing, although it's not my forté.

Ah, I see. *Nods* I'll make sure to work on that once I get to parenting the objects all up. =)

That would be appreciated. =) I'm honestly not sure if my attempt for my refractor works or not; given they're the same colour. However, theoretically, if I could get the proper textures for all the parts somehow; whether it be making them myself or not; I could finish it up.

Now, the other thing I need to look into, is if I can load Blender onto a nearly 1 Gig RAM, 750ish MHZ processor laptop... I don't know if that's under the minimum requirements or not... Should look that up now, so that when I finish up the setup of that, I can load it, if it is possible.

/EDIT: Yeah, no, I'm about 250 MHZ short. =/ Ah well, maybe if I get my image manipulator to work on there, I can use that for textures somehow, and work on the actual models on my main computer. Would likely be better anyway; I don't have a spare mouse, USB or otherwise. =P

Yeah, working Blender without a mouse is difficult.

Possible, but not very fun.

Shoot me a PM when you want to work on texturing!

Yeah, I could definitely agree. xD And I haven't even tried it without said mouse. =P

Alright then. =) Just out of curiosity, how do transparent textures work, anyway, if you happen to know?
