This issue comes up at least once a month. It's not a horrible FEATURE. It was never designed that way. Sheesh! When Poser 4 was invented, 4+ years ago, >>>nobody<<< put texture files in their Pose library. MAT and MOR poses did not exist, and people may have been lazy but they still had to load textures by using the Materials window. Now laziness is accomodated and people stick 40 shades of lipstick and 20 eyecolors in their Pose Library so that it fills up fast. Merchants actually brag about how many pose files they are going to inflict upon the user. How many does Vicky 3 come with? 80? Suddenly that 256 is a small number. Poser 5 takes care of the problem by allowing more folders and nested folders. A bit of housecleaning would fix it for the people who don't want to upgrade yet. Do you really, really, REALLY need to have all those textures in where poses ought to be? Move out the ones you aren't going to use for 6 months! Even if you use Poser 5 or PBooost, scrolling through several hundred names to find something you could simply load is probably going to take more time than it saves. Carolly
