heyas; if you're making still images, do this: run poser, then open the animation control drawer at the bottom, there. you'll see in the center it says frame 1 of 30 or some such. click on the 30 and make it say 1. close the animation drawer. go to edit: preferences, and press the "set preferred state" button. now every time you start poser, you'll have a single frame image, not an animation, and you can't advance into new frames, because there aren't any there.
