I think it is an excellent thing to do. There are certainly times when people use technology just because it's there, but in this case, I really think that it is a huge advantage to users. It might not be perfectly clear, to everyone, but I think that there is a lot of flexability for those who sell as well as those of us who are just creating characters for series of images. If for no other reason, imagine all of your unique characters taking up no more than a few hundred K. Applying the pose might take a minute, but certainly not any longer than loading V2 did (of course creating such a pose will require effort beyond what poser offers). There was a time when I had 10-20 v2 characters hogging disk space in my characters folder. That was 300+ megabytes, most of which was repeated (and unused) morph information. Such is no longer necessary. Eric
