(xxx.tdcgsav.png) - Character saves
Normal saves-- Icon is a white background with character picture. Can only load clothing/items you have installed in your arcs folder. If you don't have the mod in your arcs folder, nothing is loaded for that slot.
Heavy saves-- Green background with character picture. Can be loaded on any system with TDCG and its expansions installed, but can be fairly big files. To make one, hold ctrl and click "Save" while in normal mode.

(xxx.tdcgpose.png) - Pose saves
Pose saves--Pink background with character silhouette. Contain pose information for one character. They also happen to contain proportion information. This means that if you want to see a pose with certain proportions, you'll have to run it through a program called pngproportion which you'll learn about later. It only takes a second.
Scene saves--Yellow background with character silhouette. Contains character information for multiple characters as well as their poses and positions. So, it's capable of heavy saving multiple characters with their poses. To make one, hold cntrl and click "Save" while in pose mode.
**** Note: Pose saves are only relevant after you install the expansion that gives omake(or, pose) mode ****

TDCG loads character saves from /my documents/tech arts 3d/TDCG/ and loads pose saves from /my documents/tech arts 3d/TDCG/pose by default. Don't put them in your arcs folder or in your TDCG game folder. If it's a problem for you to have them in your my documents folder, I'm pretty sure there are ways of directing it elsewhere.

As an example, all the green saves you see in this thread are heavy saves.

Attached is a scene save. It contains Koromo from Saki.
