Ok I've looked and looked in past posts and have gleaned some useful info but still have some questions.

I am making poseballs for my furniture, first off I am stumped on how to make them 'disappear' when in use.

Also I have determined from reading some threads that the ability to type show or hide is a cause for more lag and I should make these commands on a channel...is that correct? And if so I have yet to determine how.

In addition I would dearly love to just incorporate the pose into the furniture itself, as many creators have, but I do not know how yet.

Please keep in mind when giving me any advice that I'm pretty ignorant when it comes to scripting. :D

I can do some simple modifications to scripts and can cut and paste like a champ, but otherwise I'm lost. So dumb it down for me. :o

Sitting / standing causes a changed event with the flag CHANGED_LINK, then call llSetAlpha in the event to set the alpha to 0/1 if the person sat/unsat.

Generally, commands should go on a channel other than zero - otherwise your script ends up processing everything that everybody says. Set the channel as the first parameter in llListen
