NOTE : This tutorial will work under Poser 6 and 7. Can't remember if Poser 5 had the "double click" option or not!
I used the following items to create this tutorial : Poser 7, PSP X, Aiko (character from DAZ), Saffron for Aiko (by Sarsa and Thorne), Wings of Love for Aiko (outfit and wings, by Aoaio), Deja Vu (hair, by FK Designs).
First, when you open poser, it comes already set up (factory default) with a male figure already there. Bleck, let's get rid of THAT and change the option, shall we???
And *poof* there he goes! He's not deleted from the figures you own or anything, just deleted from the scene!
Now, every time you open Poser it will have NO figure stuck there waiting for you to delete it! WooHoo!
But wait, now to go on to actually SETTING a scene and rendering a pretty picture! Yay!
