Hi, I'm sorry for the sudden message, but I'm in the middle of a university project and having a bit of a crisis.

Basically I'm following a tutorial on modelling a 3d head using photographs of a real person. Its not too important because its quite a simple problem, I just don't know how to fix it.

So here goes. Basically I created an image in photoshop which is to be used as a sort of guide for the next stage in 3d. I applied this image to a plane, and I now need to use the image to start 'tracing' guidelines from the image.

Here's a link to a picture of my problem:

For some reason the image has become very pixellated and impossible to work with. I wondered if maybe it had accidentally been changed to a lower resolution and some of the data lost, but as you can see when I render the image, the picture looks fine. However I need the picture on the plane to be clear in order for me to work with it.

Any ideas as to whats wrong, and how I can solve it?

Help would be much appreciated. I've used Max for a few projects already, but I still enounter problems now and then.
