First, you probably don't need Poser 6. Poser 5 works well with Transposer and the upgrade from Poser 5 to 6 is mostly higher end rendering features that Carrara already has. Transposer 2 lets you import dynamic hair. I've got Poser 6 and didn't unwrap it yet.

For using your own figures, I would recommend using the Poser setup room to bring your characters into Poser for creating a bone system. Then you can animate it as you would any other poser figure with dials and such.

The way it works is you create your figure animation in Poser and then save as a Poser file. Then just open the Poser file in Carrara, all the textures and animation data are then in Carrara. If you want to modify your animation, go back and make the changes in Poser and resave the file. then just push the scene update button in Carrara. This will make the changes in Carrara. There's really not an interface except the scene update, the Poser files just open in Carrara.
