I've created quite a cool metallic material that I would like to add to the LiveDB. In includes some graphics so before I add it I thought I'd ask whether it was just a case of moving the material to the LiveDB or do I need to pack the material up in some way?

The material must be inside a material macro, when you save (upload) it, everything (textures) will be packed inside the xml
Also AFAIK, if your textures are (too) big (I think 1k+), others won't be able to download it (some bug, or something).

Thanks for that. Yes, it is all inside a material macro. I will have to check the size.
