Leather Guy, the only problem with having a library system that is totally customizable is that it would be a nightmare for content creators to package their products. But I agree that a seperate folder for MAT files is essential. A choice between different displays would be nice, sort of like windows with a choice between thumbnails (the PNG pictures) or just the titles. The ability to save the rendered image as the thumbnail would be good, so that you can see transparencies in the thumbnails of the library (I know this is possible with a work-around, but it could be easier). As far as figure set up goes, the ability to properly name parts in the program, without having to hack the CR2 would be good. Deleting a file from the library should ask you if you want to delete the associated files, like textures and *.obj files as well. You will be amazed at how many things are left behind everytime you delete something. An undo for delete!!!!!! Curiouslabs should also include some pre-made skeleton bones for figure creation, like a four legged beast, four wheeled vehicle, two wheeled vehicle with the right rotation orders etc. Very simple to make and include, and could save some time. In the figure creation process, such as making clothes, some way of marking on the PNG or CR2 for which figure this is made, or who it will conform to. Like the comment tab # you have in most programming languages, but something standardised so that everyone will use it and we won't be wondering who that dress was for that you downloaded three months ago that won't conform to any of your models.
