Hi Friends, I'm having trouble with making a map for a 3D stick figure head. I'm guessing this is a super-basic question, but I cannot solve it. All I'm after is making a flat texture map I can apply eyes and mouth to with different expressions, like simple text emoticons (smiley face, :0-oh no face, etc...).  Basically just a GIMP-editable flat file for mapping onto a sphere, but I cannot figure it out. 
Thank You. 

It is a matter of custom UV unwrap, the way it best suites your needs. iClone has some unwrap presets (at the bottom in the materials tab).
But that is not always enough to create what you need with ease.

Here I made a basic sphere unwrap in Blender for smiles. You can paint smiles for it in any graphics editor.
(top, bottom and sides of the face need to be slightly warped inward on the image for the best proportion)

Hey 4u2ges, thanks for the info and the prop file. However, I cannot open/import it using either iC7 or 3DX. I get 'Cannot Load The File." and "...may not be compatible" sorts of messages. I'm hoping it's just a corrupt file xfer. Would you please repost the file? Thanks again. 

Hey Kevin, I just checked and it's OK. You probably is not running the latest version of iClone. Need to have v7.82 (where I saved it).
I have attached OBJ just in case. Bring it through the 3DX.
