I've recently started trying to add characters to the online store, but don't know what the rules are regarding what will and won't work with Mac. The files I upload are CR@, RSR and OBJ head morph files. Mike

Those files run on a macintosh with no problem using Macconverter. In fact, I (mac user) never check wether an item is for mac or pc (except in the store, massive mike, for example). I just download them, use macconverter and everything is ok to date. Hope this helps.

Anyone know why more people are marking their downloads as "PC Only' when they're JPEGs and standard Poser items? The only PC-only Poser items I've ever found are Windows utility programs. Everything else is "PC/Mac" Period. Maconverter is a godsend. BBEdit takes care of the occasional file with the pesky hardcoded Windows filepaths inside.

Your right about Maconvertor, this has to be the most used utility on my Mac. As for the "PC only" tags there is a lot of confusion amoungst everyone as to what is compatible and what is not, so to be safe they just tag it Mac only or PC only. A lot of us out there are fairly new to poser and are learning all the little things that more experienced users take for granted, a never ending process as more and more people discover Poser.
