I need a little help from my friends

First, let me say that you have a wonderful product and I hope it is very profitable. 

I bought Studio Paris and several interior settings. Some of these have paintings and easels with paintings.

How can I change the images in the pictures to my images?

I purchased the IDG 2 portrait studio.  In the pictures in the ads, it shows presets, but I didn't get any of these. 

Do I need the previous version?  I have to make up a room and manually insert the light and props.  I did purchase the addition props and stuff.

This is a fantastic product, and I just need to have the complete set, or someone needs to show me what to do. 

Would moving my content library to a solid state drive make the thing in render run faster. How do I move things without messing up stuff. 

I have migrated from Poser Pro 11 to Daz Studio for most all of my stuff. I figure out how to access the Daz Studio from in Poser. It a little slow but I got time.  However, the characters do not look the same if Poser as they do in Daz. The have a shiny effect and that do not look anything like they do in DAZ.

Which can offer the faster render time DAZ or Carrara 8.5 Pro.  I don't have a Nvidia Card on my Mac.

In Studio Paris, select the canvas of the prop you wish to change (click on the canvas area with the Surface Seelction tool, from the Tools menu, most easily) then in the Surfaces pane's Editor tab click the tiny thumbnail to the left of Diffuse Color, select Browse from the menu, and navigate to the image you wish to use - if it's stretched you either need to use a different canvas/frame or adjust the scale in Parameters to square it up.

Which IDG Protrait Studio 2 - this https://www.daz3d.com/idg-portrait-studio-2 (there's also a bundle and aproduct with props)? That should have material presets and presets fro lighting - but at least soem of the latter are Render presets, not light presets as such (others may also be materials presets to make the light surfaces emit, I'm not sure how that set works).
