Try using the morph magnets that come with poser. You can accomplish a great deal without having to use an external program. First you want to set the figure style to smooth shaded lined. Click on the display menu, then drop down to Document style, smooth shaded lined. This will show the facets and lines that make up the character. Next apply a magnet. Click on the objects menu and then click on create magnet. Make sure you have selected the body part that you want to apply the magnet to. Once the magnet is created, it will be represented by an object that looks just like a magnet. The magnet has 3 parts to it. The magnet itself, the magnet base, and a magnet zone. All these are important. From here, you can play around with the magnets. Apply as many as your system can handle but remember to back up your work often. Oh, one more thing. Once you have the morph the way you want it, Click on the object you are morphing one more time, then go back to the objects menu and hit "Spawn Morph Target". A pop up menu will come up asking you to name your new morph target. Give it any name you want. Do this as many times for as many morphs that you need. Once you have finished, then go to the Windows Menu and click on Heirarchy. Click on Figure, then create a new figure.Add your figure to your library, and VOILA!, you have a new character with all the morphs you need. Hope this helps.
