Rig Scale Problem

Rig Scale Problem

I'm working on my first full character rig. I am using the Rig from
guide with a few mods for my character. I have a Global SRT null that is
a parent of my rig and geometry. The null is a child of the Model. When
I try to scale down using the Global SRT null I get two problems.



1) The tail I have attached("create tail" from curve) does not scale.



2) The eyes scale double the SRT null, so they are very small if I scale
the null down. The eyes are not enveloped but deformed using a lattice
and the whole eye setup is constrained to a null in the rig hierarchy.
