What I usually do to prepare a freebie for upload is the following (works from P5 upwards):
Almost there. The only thing left to do is fix the texture references in your prop.
Open the file chandelier.pp2 in a text editor, and replace all references to texture files that look like "D:XXX.........texturemap.jpg" with ":runtime:textures:Plutom:texturemap.jpg"
To create a nice thumbnail, render your chandelier in Poser to a new window, sized 91x91 pixels, and save as "chandelier.png" in the ChandelierRuntimelbrariespropsChandelier folder.
Also nice: a readme. Create a new subfolder under the main Chandelier folder, call it "readme"
Make a new subfolder under "readme", call it Plutom.
Make a readme.txt file and place it in the ChandelierreadmePlutom folder
Ready for distribution. Although it's always a good idea to test everything before you upload. Start an empty Poser scene, go to the Chandelier runtime, and load your chandelier prop. If you did everything right, it should load with the correct textures.
Zipping up for distribution (I use WinZip for this purpose):
Hope this helps..
