hello, this is my first post. i have been teacing myself maya with what i could find on the web.

so far i have two questions.

when i make a sculpted NURBS plane, then apply a brush (i.e. trees or plants) they all seem to 'grow' along the original flat plane. how do i get the trees or grass to follow the contours of the hills?

also, when i import a figure from poser4 how do i take the textures from there and make my own in photoshop. the tutorials i have found (the few) on texturing are REALLY vague on this subject

thanks in advance!
