I went from Poser 9 to PP11. I haven't noticed any improvement OR problem with the library search function. You won't lose a thing.

What some of us have done is change the ini file to allow to use the browser of our choice as our library. It does NOT connect to the internet it just allows to see searches differently and some of us like it. Some prefer the regular Poser Library so it's still up to you.

Oh! And PP11 offers other new things like a new rendering engine called superfly if you're into hyperrealism. Since you're at the home of Poser, I'll let the landlord continue to pour you the kool-aid.
