Yup, the thumbnail is what I need. I thought about P3DO, but I believe it's a standalone program as opposed to a script or plugin specifically for Poser. Lisbeth! I just noticed that your computer speaks a foreign language!! Ha! Don't hit me with that SPAM can Lisbeth!! :) I know I can set thumbs for all my folders, but frankly I just turned it off not long ago :) There are times when you just don't want your "OS" thrashing about rendering images :) And I checked "do not cache thumbs" a long time ago, because of the system file it creates that sometimes refuses to let go if you want to delete an empty folder...a real pain in the arse. As a result, new thumbs have to be created each time. I have "icons" as my default setting for all folders. In most cases that's fine, because a folder still has the "image viewer" on the left side of the folder (if you're using the default XP settings), so you can see an image if you want to. But in Poser I need some way to see what the texture looks like before selecting it. If there is no Python script or Poser only plugin for this, then I can use Windows Explorer and simply select the thumb view each time. As long as I have your attention Lisbeth (or anyone), I'm starting to get enough stuff in Poser that it's taking longer for stuff to load. Here's my question: In P5 you can have multiple "Runtimes". I'm thinking of creating another one for all the stuff that I don't use all the time, but that gives me quicker access than burning to a CD or moving it to "my documents". I'm assuming that Poser loads only what is in the Primary Runtime (the one it created). Is my thinking correct on this or do I have to move it completely out of Poser to lighten the load?
