Andrew, Since you are a programmer then you wouldn't have any problem with PML (Poser markup language). I was at first a little bit lost and open the files with a little fear and respect, until I found that it was just like Postscript and all clear to me. Well, you can go to my homepage and download Cr2editor151. Put the .exe in anywhere you want. Once it is installed open your pose and you will see what I mean, all affected body actors will show up (hip, abdomen, chest, etc.) you just have to select and delete the body parts that you don't want, chest, head. Leave the ones you want to move and that's it! Easy but you have to see it for yourself to understand it, it's a good thing you start with a .pz2 file because the construction it's very simple and less frightening:) Hope this help Posermatic
