Ariah, it sounds like you might be exporting the head with location information included - the neck then stretches to the inaccurate head position. Do you export by: - File/Export/WavefrontOBJ - Single Frame - In the Heirarchy Window, click the Universe check box to deselect all the boxes, then click the Head check box only, and OK - name the .obj file - In the next dialog, make sure all the checkboxes are unchecked except "As Morph Target (no world transformations)" You are not allowed to distribute .obj files, because that is the actual geometry of the figure, which is protected by copyright. The way to legally distribute geometry is to encode it into .pcf format, which can only be decoded when the original .obj file is present. Donor/Injection pose files are a safe way to distribute a morph, because it only contains delta lines (which determine the direction and amount of vertex movement from the original position), not actual geometry. However, DAZ has additional restrictions on using morphs created in whole or part using their copyrighted morphs, so you have to distribute them as dial settings (or as a combination of dial settings for their morphs and a donor/injector for your made-from-scratch morphs). HTH, Elisa/gryffnn
