After beeing laughed at by my swedish "fellow" artists I will now try the one place that I know of that could help me.

^ this is a model that I'we been working on for a week now or so...you know what...lets say two weeks...I dont really know :D

So today I felt that the model itself was sort of completed and I decided to do some test riggings to see if it would work. I began with rigging her right arm and hand. I admit that I placed a bone wrong (begining of the wrist), but thats not the problem.
Each finger has three weightmaps, one for every segment. Each segment has got one bone. With "Use weightmap only" the bones dont even effect the mesh, which I find strange. So I turned it of so that I could move her arm. I was pleased with the results until I came to the fingers:

Could anybody tell me what could be wrong here?
I'll look into the "Use weightmap only" problem now, but I dont have any clue of what could be wrong, so help in that subject would also be apriciated :love:

THX! :D :wavey:
