'I don't put it in the texture folder, I put it in the figure/props folder.....Also, when a texture cannot be found, that's the first place Poser looks for it' Unfortunately, it means that before poser ever finds your texture, it has to look through the texture folder first, then go through the others. A guaranteed recipe to make poser even slower than it is. The only way to do this stuff is to install by hand, name everything properly, and never install anything until you have the time to try it, find out what it is, and whether you want to keep it. I leave zips alone until I have the time to try the things out. If I like them, ok, they stay. Otherwise, I trash them immedately along with all the texts and obj files. It's one of the problems of having so much stuff available. You want to get it all. Well, do it, but keep it under control. mac
