They show up for me. So I'm not sure why you don't see them.

Actually it's important to know which version of Poser you're using. If you have Poser 4, much of the above-mentioned advice will not apply. PBoost would be a good utility to help organize Poser 4 installations. If you have Poser 5 or 6, then external Runtimes are a good idea. But again, it's good to know which version of Poser you have.

Poser 4, 5, and 6 have worked just fine for me.

It's important to know which version of Poser you havebefore one can give any good suggestions. Poser 4 is handled far differently than Poser 5 & 6.

The solution is easy. Stop using generic file names that are most likely duplicated elsewhere.

Carolly, it is wrong to insult and threaten those who are trying to help. You have chosen to see an insult where it did not exist. Now you could surprise me by accepting that you are once again wrong. But then you'd be doing the right thing.

Dan Farr is really a nice guy. I'm always so impressed when he takes the time to call me, and talk at great lengths. Unfortunately I didn't even think about discussing the matters mentioned in this thread, so I didn't get any such info. My last discussion centered partly around a minor problem buying an item. That's why I was so impressed that both Dan and Moira took the time to call me

I likelyh will abandon Jessi and James just because they're really no better than Don & Judy if they don't have more free morphs. It would be nice if Curious Labs would give people some good, versatile content, free with Poser. And while you're at it, get rid of all that old junk no one ever uses.

You chose to make it rude. Now leave it alone.

Acadia, if one does not understand terms someone used, the best way to get answers is to ask for clarification, or to have someone rephrase their words. I'm sorry you chose to get upset with that effort. Step back, and catch a few breaths.

If you have a virus infected computer, the last thing you want to do is copy stuff off your hard drive, and reinstall it or copy it back to your computer once you're reformatted and started over. Think about it. If your computer is infected, anything you copy to CD's or floppies is potentially infected. If you don't keep up your antivirus program, you may as well hang a sign on your door saying "I like viruses."

Have you seen those AOL commercials? It's the same thing. I hate AOL, but they have a valid point. You need to get protected and stay protected.

Now I also have to wonder about all these virtual disk or memory managers. I don't use any of that stuff, and really think they cause more trouble than harm. There just is no substitute for getting the proper amount of memory and hard drive space.

I've never used any of that stuff, and I've never had any problems running any version of Poser. So maybe I'm doing something right?

Look at the prices. I think you get a better price if you move up from Poser 5 than if you move up from Poser 4. Other than that, there is only one version of Poser 6. There is no upgrade version versus full version. There is no sniffer looking for a previous version. When you order, you supply your qualifying serial number. That's it.

Who's Jenni? Do you mean Jessi?

You mentioned having a virus in the past, but do not mention if you have an antivirus and firewall program. If you don't, then you most likely picked up something again. I'm a bit confused by such terms as "evacuate," in relation to your computer. Perhaps English is not your primary language? That's ok, your message is otherwise fairly clear. It does sound like the people who are giving you computer advice don't know that much about computers. One thing about computer problems: You need to fix whatever caused the problem, or the problem keeps repeating. The best way to do this is to take it one step at a time. I can tell you Windows XP is an excellent operating system. You need to be sure and keep your hardware drivers up to date. You need to perform regular maintenance on your computer. I prefer using Norton's Speed Disk and One button checkup for that task. I did eliminate Norton Internet Security 2005 in favor of PC-Cillin Internet Security Suite, but that was before buying Poser 6. I disagree on keeping your graphics computer "pure." This computer is a multi-purpose computer. I use it to surf the web, create CD labels, make web sites, etc. However, I do not play games. I just don't have the time or patience.

Boy I'm terribly confused here. I've never heard of a head floating on the Poser screen when you load Poser. What's all this about harmonic files and canoes?! Usually when you use Poser you do not "import" stuff. You load it from the Libraries. The best thing for you is to take one step, or item at a time. You can start by "translating" for us.
