I see. In my world that is called subdivision. ;-)

As I said, Poseray has always done an excellent job for me when it came 
to further subdivide an existing mesh. I prefer to do it however, within 
the program that created the mesh in the first place (i.e. Silo for me) 
and at the end of the modelling process, otherwise the mesh becomes too 
heavy to work with.
