Subject: png preview pics not showing in menu flyout

i hope someone can help with this one. occasionally, when i extract a model i purchased into Poser (4), all i get is the "generic" i dunno pic in the menu. is there a way to get the extracted png's to show...they seem to have been extracted into the character folder. is there some special place they should be, do i have to save them in another format? any help would be appreciated. thanx. steelrazer (bill)

check the folder (runtime/libraries/character/?folder name) and make sure the png or rsr extracted there. You could always load up the character and render it at 91X91 and save it as the same name as the cr2 and voila! You'll have your png!

forgot to say save it as a png, character.png that is... I always do them at 347 x 260... with the character centered in the window it always centers it perfectly in the png and I have a nice big detailed thumbnail of all my models! Might be overkill but I like it!

steelrazer, If I read correctly you are using P4, not propack or P5. P4 does not use png's to display thumbnails. You will have to convert the png's to rsr's. Go over to yarps' site and get P3dOexplorer, free or pro, either will do the job. Make sure to get the plug-ins.

I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.

That's an absolutely normal assumption with P5 being used more and more now. It does get confusing though.
