If this whole topic has already been addressed (and I'm sure it has, I just can't find it) please direct me to the thread. 😊  Or maybe there's a how-to somewhere?
So here's my issue.  I have made several characters and textures for both characters and clothes (soon hair too) and I would like to upload them as freebies.  Some day maybe sell some stuff, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. 😄
In what format do they need to be saved so that other people can use them? And, how do I save it so that when someone unzips it to thier Poser directory, it unzips and goes to al the right places instead of staying in the main folder?
Thanks in advance!!

This link should help you :)

Just make sure that anything you offer from textures to morphs are 100% your own creation and not derivatives of existing textures and morphs, and that any resources you use allow you to use them for such purposes.

Also, don't forget a readme file. Also, please name it something other than "readme.txt" :)  Include in it a contact address if someone needs to contact you.  Whether you allow redistribution of your files.  Any credits for resources which you used. And whether your items can be used commercially.
