Im too tired/stupid to work this out myself.
Are there any tutorials on how to set up a directory/folder for sharing/distributing a wearble preset. And also before saving the wearbale preset, where to put the textures so the file paths are correct?
Edit: Problem solved. I found this thread, which contains answers about setting up textures for packaging before making preset etc: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/189706/how-to-package-freebie-clothing

Textures are put in your subfolder under Runtime > Textures > lilweep > etc.
The item to become the wearable preset is then textured, etc. as desired. Save to a suitable, logical location. For eg.: My Library > People > Genesis Female > Clothing > name of product OR your handle, etc.
The geometry data is also required: My Library > data > lilweep > name of product, etc.
And last but not least, a readme file is required specifying whether or not the item(s) is(are) okay to use in commercial artwork, etc.
@lilweep, thanks for the link to the thread on Packaging Clothing, as it has a lot of helpful info. And thanks to @Catherine3678ab for her file tips too!
For those who are visually oriented, Dreamlight has another excellent video tutorial on packaging (althought the focus is more on props) including Saving Render Presets, Creating Promo Images, Creating the Zip file, etc...
