Oh! I got it wrong! I thought this meant a call on the services of Robert Ford:-)) Cheers, Diolma. PS - yes, the best way to set up your initial configuration is to start Poser, delete everyone, set up your lights annd cams as you think they would work for your general purposes, then go and set up that in general preferences (as described above). Poser loads somewhat faster if it doesn't have to hunt for figures and textures... (also it saves memory 'cos Poser doesn't delete any unused textures from memory until the next restart..) :-))
