Genesis 3 Expressions

Am I missing something or does G3 not come with any expressions? I can't even open their mouths or close their eyes?

Expressions are a separate pack that you have to purchase.

To open the mouth, close eyes etc, you can do that in the Parameter tab, click on "Pose Controls"

You can do your own expressions by dial spinning the mouth. Once you get what you want save it so you can use it whenever you want.

How do you save the expressions?  As a pose preset?

Thanks for the answers! I'm new to Studio as well, I totally didn't see the other tabs.

I remember being there. Another thing to keep in mind, selecting the Head (and then clicking on the Parameters Tab) is the easiest way to adjust Pose Controls for expressions of most figures in DAZ Studio. You can also save just an Expression (without the rest of the body) by beginning the save porcess and when it asks you to save the whole body, click on the check mark next to the figure (in the Save window) and it will allow you to customize what you'd like to save, specifically. So if you just want to save the Head and Neck poses, for example, you'd just click Neck Upper, Neck Lower, and Head. These will have check marks next to them, signifying that you'll only be saving expressions/poses for just those zones. Very, VERY useful for combining expressions/poses from different sets. too!
