OK, full body Morphs in Blender3D:
First of all and most important get Compose, a Java aplication needed for this tutorial
Compose

And UVMapper free here UVMapper

Extract the content of the MorphsUtilities.zip to your Poser instalation directory, I'll do it in Poser 5
but works on Poser 6 and 7 as well.

05 Let's load Don, I'm going to use this character because it comes with Poser 5, is not a bad character (Michael 2 texture compatible)
and most of all because he has alternate geomety in the hip to enable genitals on/off, and this will let me show you how to handle this.
So load Don and then tourn genitalia Off.

14 You'll end with an object called Body_jv select it and go to "Save Items" use the Browse buttons to find a good place
where to save it and give them a good name, I added _JOIN at the end and save a Vertex Map File too, this is very important
give the same name as the obj for easy reference.
