I don't know if it's a problem with Flash, permissions, firewall - not sure. They can help or not, but your info will contribute to the solution.

I'm having this same problem! I am very frustrated! I sent an email to tech support about it.

this is what tech support emailed me:

 Make sure you have installed the Flash Update that is available from Adobe. If you have and the issue persists, launch Poser and double click the LSMGUI.html file and launch it in your browser.

Also, verify that the LSMGUI/bin-release folder is listed as a trusted Flash application folder.

The contents should be a variant of this:
C:Program FilesSmith MicroPoser 8RuntimeuiFlexLSMGUIbin-release

It should match the main runtime installation location.

In that folder is LSMGUI.html and LSMGUI.swf, the two pieces that make up the Library GUI. Launching LSMGUI.html standalone (but Poser must be running) viewing this in your Browser may reveal the problem.
Include your Operating System and Browser in your response along with the install location of Poser 8 and the content Path.

Trying to get the Poser 8 Library to show up....no luck.  This seems impossible,

What a pain!!!!!
I am excited to get started with the new program, but am stymied right at the outset..RATS!!!!

Thanks much for any help,

Thanks so much for your answers...I'm off to try again!!

This is definitely Off Topic, but since you mentioned that you render in programs other than Daz, could you tell me what you use....where do you take what type of files out of Daz???  This has been a quandary for me.
Thanks,
Eb

these are terrific collections- thanks so much!

Thanks!

Hey Chris-
 your problem sounds like its been solved, but if you want a classic way of creating an alpha channel that is associated with your rgb image- here's the way in Pshop ( I don't know Elements, so I can't tell if appropriate)

if your drawing is already the background layer- use the Magic wand tool to select it
go the the Select menu, Inverse
back to the Select menu- save selection- name it something- look at your channels tab, you will now have an alpha channel for your image

If your drawing is on a layer above the background layer, go to the Select menu
Load selection
back to the Select menu, Inverse
back to the Select menu, Save Selection, name it something...
goto your channels tab, there will be an alpha channel for your image
