    I think I found a bug with the Hivewire Lion?

    I'm making my first artwork with the Hivewire Lion (which is awesome by the way!) but I've run into what may be a bug. If I use the "Yawn" or "Yawn 2" morphs past a value of 0.6 then the lion's mane will go into his mouth. The mane looks fine before a value of 0.6 but as soon as it hits that...

    In Blender, I'm trying to duplicate the lower half of my character model's body. However, the selected area's edges come out jagged. It's not a straight line wrapped around the waist. Why is this happening and how can I fix it?

    A question about making HD morphs in DS

    I've been wanting to make some HD morphs for Dawn and Dusk. I searched for some tutorials on the subject, and my results were clogged with old forum posts in other forums saying that you can't make HD morphs unless you are a vendor. Is that still true? If it is still true then is it possible...

    AutoGroup Editor? Will it do what I need?

    So I've been struggling with an outfit I'm making for Zan/Taji because it's a lot of trouble to group, and I'm wondering if AutoGroup Editor will do what I want (don't own it yet, but I'd happily buy it if it does).

    3DL materials not previewing correctly

    So I'm not a big DS user, and I don't know if this is normal (I know in Poser there are certain things that just won't preview correctly). I have a black option for the shoes I'm working on, which is basically the white option with the Diffuse Color changed. It renders just fine, but it...

    Solved How to receive e-mail notifications on Conversations

    So quick question, because after all this time I've never figured this out. Is there a way to receive e-mail notifications on private conversations I'm having on the forums. This would be a huge help to me if there was, but I've never found a way to do it.

    Help! I'm so much a DS user I'm totally lost in Poser!

    If anyone know of some good (free) videos on the basics of Poser 11 pro (or relevant) I would love a list of them :D With DS I didn't have much problems setting up a basic scene when I first started. I could work out lights (maybe not so they looked good, but enough to light up a scene :P) and...

    How to add morphs to clothes without infringement?

    So as I'm putting together my conforming clothing set I have a question on morphs for clothing so that they match the figure. With my free robe I did a morph for axel, but that was all done with manual adjustments so I didn't worry about it, and just used the Axel morph as a guide. However if...
