Okay, here's something that's more of a general suggestion. My Pose list is huge, and I use P4. It takes me about 30 seconds just to scroll to the bottom of it (yes, I know, get PBooost. I've tried it, and I can't use it cuz win98 always locks the stupid folders). Now, I'm aware that there are limitations to the number of folders Poser can address (something like 250), so I believe that merchants should definitely keep this in mind when deciding whether to create a new folder or not. If it can be avoided, do it. For example, if you created a mat for another product, put the mat file with the product, don't create a new one. And here's one more customer preference: I really do love the zips that auto install the product, if I unzip it to the poser directory. However, I rarely do this because of the inevitable readme.txt that will overwrite whatever is sitting in my Poser directory. Instead, I just unzip the product to it's own directory, then cut and paste the runtime directory to the Poser 4 directory. That way I have a product-named directory with it's attendant readme. I wouldn't mind changing this habit if merchants adopted a readme location standard, but I'm not holding my breath.
