Another tip. When you save anything from Poser in your library, it tries to make an icon from your scene or materials. I find these not so.
You can render anything you want and export the image as the icon for your new library items.
Traditionally these are 91 by 91 pixels, but in Poser 8 and Poser Pro 2010 you can make them any size you want within reason. The library GUI forces these images to be a certain size, but when you click one, you get a bigger version. Also you can make them all big in the tile list. Very nice if you have a lot of screen space to work with.
Anway, if you have a material collection called Foo.m6c, then the corresponding icon is Foo.png, in the same folder. Just export a render as the rightly named .png file and it will work.
Then refresh that folder and it will show up in the GUI.
Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
