Subject: How do I install BloodFX and BloodFX Small Bursts in Daz Studio?

Hello, everyone! Pretty much what it says on the tin.
I bought Flinks' BloodFX and BloodFX Small Bursts props. I tried installing them the way I've installed every other third party Daz Studio product I've ever bought by opening the zipped folder and moving the content from there into the folder where all my other Daz Studio third party content is. However, there's a problem. No matter how I try, all I can get to actually show up when I open Daz Studio is the Shaders included in the product.
There's no installation instructions in any of the included documentation with the download. The best I could find is some vague mention of moving all the OBJ files in one of the product reviews.
So, if anyone else has bought this, what do I have to do to get the props to work?

It looks as if they have Poser files plus daz Studio materials, so you would look under poser Formats in the Content Library pane, under Props, to load the models and then go to Daz Studio Formats to find the materials.

I actually figured it out in probably the most inconvenient way possible.
Load the props into the Poser format, the materials into Daz Studio. It works, but it's pretty annoying as I have to hunt between two different directories.

Turn them into a product in the database and you can see them all together by opening the product tab in Smart Content - a fiddle once, but adding a full suite of metadata can pay off in the long run.

You can also put the DS materials in the poser library if you give them a dummy Poser file - DSmaterials.duf and DSmaterials.png need DSmaterials.pz2 (or any other Poser file extension) and when you look in the Poser library folder you will see the thumbnail with a scroll icon at top-left, indicating that there is a native DS companion files that DS will load instead of the Poser file when you double-click.
