I like the way references are stored now. It is aimed at supporting a development workflow. Files that are generated with a .cr2 are for use with that .cr2 and located in that same folder the .cr2 is in and have the same base name as that .cr2. Had Poser been making image texture files, they would have gone there also. Within that folder the user can hammer, drill and weld at his heart's content. There is however one problem with the present implementation: the referenced files within the same folder as the .cr2 are still given as full path names where the reference better had been relative to the .cr2, so just by the basename.

Once the figure or prop development has lead to something worth consolidating and referred to from elsewhere, it can be moved to the production setup with geometry in Geometries, texture image files in Textures, morphs in Morphs and so on.

It would be convenient to have a tool that can re-organize content from development mode to production mode and vice versa.
