Rob, Actually, there are morphs to give the female figure bigger breasts... dozens if not hundreds of them. There are also morphs to make the hips, stomach, and buttocks shaplier, too. When you click on a body part, you should see a stack of dials to the right. Each dial does a specific thing. For the face you might tweak for a heart shape, narrow nose, mouth into an "o", and blink left eye. The numbers above the dials are much more precise. You can use negative numbers, too! The opposite of a frown helps make a smile better. Play with the dials until you get a feel for them. Some have major effects, but you can always restore. Some of the dials will scale the body part, or rotate it, or translate it in space. These are all useful for making your figure unique or getting it into a certain pose. Now, back to morphs (this digression is serving a purpose). When you load a morph target, or apply a character morph, you add more dials to the stack. You might have a hypothetical character called "Martha" and when installed and loaded you'll notice that she is the standard figure with another dial labeled Martha set at 1.0 which you can then fade back to 0.0 depending upon how much of Martha's attributes you want. Alternatively, the character might have several new dials for face shape and body shape. You can also find individual morphs at Traveler's site www.morphworld30.com (I think this is right) so you can add specific dials. Say that you want long fingernails or elf ears or even no ears at all for an alien... the morphs are out there, or you can make your own. As for hair? Go to DigitalBabes (link at right) and check out Kozaburo's tutorials for making hair. Have fun!
