[1] Logical placement - When I first got Poser, silly me, I looked in the material library for files to change textures. One of the old hands told me "They're in the pose folder."
That made no sense to me. In retrospect, I now understand why, but again, the time of the MATpose has passed.
[2] Even distribution of libraries. The pose folder is bulging; the purpose-built material library sits nearly empty. Also logical identification by file type - it's not a pose.
[3] Accumulation of garbage in a cr2. Sometimes using MATposes repeatedly can incrementally add no-longer-used data in the cr2. As I understand it, this occurs with improperly made MATposes but not with properly made MATposes.
Regarding ReadMe files, Poser provides a place for them - shared documents > Poser Pro 2014 Content > Runtime > Readme. I often find ReadMe folders created by products & freebies stored beside the runtime folder. More often, the folder is properly within runtime, but they just couldn't bring themselves to spell it correctly. I see readmes, read me, et cetera.
Poser 12, in feet.
