There was a thread a few days ago that discussed a few methods to make better thumbnails both inside & outside Poser. The link will take you to the thread. Here's an exerpt from my post in the thread, but several others followed with additional techniques that they found better for their needs. Personally I use my method a lot, as I can do it on the fly within Poser, but then I haven't spent the time learning the specialized utilities mentioned by the others. Exerpt follows: ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ With Poser4, I used to make better quality, rendered thumbnails (rsr previews) with the old trick of rendering onto background, moving the figure aside, and saving to a library with just the rendered image on the background visible in the thumbnail. With Pro Pak, I lost that capability - the background is always blank in the png's that are saved with library items. - lots of other features more than made up for it, so I didn't sweat it too much. ........................ I started Poser, loaded a lo-poly figure, and put a transmapped hair on it, Framed & rendered the hair, & saved to a JPG. Next I loaded a simple one-sided square prop (comes with poser) placed it BETWEEN the camera and the figure, applied the rendered JPG to the square as a texture, re-selected the hair item, and saved it to the hair library. Worked like a charm! (see picture) After a few tries, I got it down to 2-5 minutes per item. I'm tickled by this, as it can be done IN POSER, with just a couple minutes effort. The main thing to remember, for anyone who tries this is to ALWAYS RE-SELECT ITEM YOU WANT TO SAVE IN THE LIBRARY BEFORE SAVING! - otherwise you'll find you've actually saved the textured square, or a camera setting or something. I hope someone else finds this useful. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ For a commercial item You'd probably want to do some post work, or composite text onto the JPG before applying to the square. Be sure to read the other methods in the thread, as they might be better for you.
