Okay I hate to sound like a broken record, but I was wondering if there is an easier way to match my Poser model to my SL avatar shape? It’s very frustrating when I make a pose with more than 2 avatars and the limbs and other body parts are so far apart than what I see in poser. From what I have read in the forums it sounds like everyone is constantly tweaking and doing tons of uploading. If that’s what it takes then that’s what it takes I was just hoping that there would be an easier way. I know that everyone’s shape is different I don’t expect perfection I just want my animations to look remotely close to what there supposed to.

Thanks

because of the seemingly endless amount of adjustments you can make on an avatar, the only way you can get close to your shape is the trial and error method. But once you have it, it'll be close enough and you can save those length changes.

You'll always have to be constantly uploading. Arms in poser may look fine, but they will most likely look broken in SL. So you may get distances right after a while, but you will still need to upload quite a bit.
