Try this. Uninstall poser but rename your runtime directory to runtime2 before you do(so you don't have to reload all your products again) delete the plugins, pref, dots, temp, ui from runtime2 directory. Reinstall fully but do not restart your pc. Immediately install either Service release 1 or 2. I do not recommend SR 3 because it messed up my poser 5 install (and don't hold your breath on tech support ... I never heard back from them from the post I made in DECEMBER.) Restart your computer and run poser. It should ask for your product serial number. If you don't have SR1 or 2, email me. This got my poser 5 up and running again.

Monsieur le Emperor looks tres chic, non? He's really incredible! Gonna look into him straightaway! (now how's about some nice dapper Englishmen from the same Regency era to round out the scene? YUM!

I agree! I hope they approve them soon! These are awesome!

I agree with Rockets too. If I can only upload one picture a day, forget about it. I do work in spurts. Sometimes I have nothing for a week, and then I get inspired and wind up with four or five. I think a big problem is that some artists put up basically the very same work from just differing camera angles and perhaps lighting. I agree that the artists need to show some discretion on what they put up, and they shouldn't just do it to beg compliments. That should be done in the forums. But there are people who are proud of what they've done and want to show their peers what they've done. Whether or not anyone comments, it's a good feeling to put up something they've worked hard on, and it's even more exciting to have someone (especially someone whom they admire) post a positive or helpful comment on the page. I think restraint on the artist's part should be emphasized more than limiting people who really do have three powerful images to upload. I've been guilty of uploading a work-in-progress, but I don't do that anymore because I know the finished product is always more appealing than the lump of digital clay. Just my two bucks, dolares, dinar, yen, rubles, pesos, pence and any other foreign currency.

Ah! Thanks! I'll check that!

Okay. Apology accepted and offered. =) I didn't look for other posts, and I admit that, but I sometimes get a one track mind and I'm thinking "WHY THE HELL WON'T THIS @*&#; DAMN THING WORK!?' so, no harm done. I am new, and I'm still trying to learn lots, so forgive me for stumbling. I'm sorry. Thanks for the reply though. =) ~Kia, the cat named after a car ... or is it the other way around?

Sorry, oh great guru ... If all I did was do Renderings all day, perhaps I would have been able to read all the postings, but I have an incredibly busy life and by the time I get a chance to do my renderings, my eyes are blurry with sleep. I'll try to keep that in mind, ok?
