I'm not sure what you mean by saving them in a proper way?

To position them there is a script you can run provided by the dev of the asset with the product. You'll have to be in the active cam view you want to use when you run it.

Save them as a prop, a scene, a subscene?

Silly me (too tired), sorry.
I should have checked the now crowd script how he did it.

They're already props. I load them into the scene I want them in like any other prop, position them etc and save it as a scene. Never seen a need to do it as a subscene yet.

Well, I didn't make clear enoughwhat I am trying to do. Sorry.

I rendered a few G8, dressed and posed, with transparent background.
Used the alpha channel to create a b/w image of the "scene" for opacity cutout.

Created a plane, put the original image in base image, the b/w image in cutout opacity.
And .. I have my own billboard. :)

How do I save this, so I can use it in My Library with one click?
Like in the now crowd billboards.

Ok, well save it as a prop or a subscene. Either one should work.
