I have a large collection of Pz3 scene files,  some vendors include previews to  see ahead of time what the scene includes. Some don't include these  preview images.

So what I was wondering is ... Is there a way/viewer to see these without having to load up each one in Poser?

I'm using Poser 7, if that matters, lol.

Thanks for any help you can offer!

Not that I'm aware. Hopefully someone knows better than I do ;).

P3DO Explorer has that capability, it will create a thumbnail for the scene file.

P9 and PP2012 now have the ability to save scenes to the library and will create a thumbnail there as well.

This Python script may help:-

Save thumbnail along with PZ3 file

Thanks so much for all the info!

wimvdb, will the free version create the thumbnail?  

PhilC, thanks for the link to the script! I guess I could open each scene once and save with a thumb, be much better than having to load each scene everytime I wanted to use   something from that package, cos I'm dang sure too old to remember what "3Ba" was last time I opened it, rofl

No but P3dO generated thumbnails are not as cute as Poser renders, far from it. The best is to save a Thumb and put it in the same directory as where the PZ3 is. P3dO will merge both thumbnails and PZ3 as it does with other Poser files. This will work with both the free and pro versions of P3dO.
