Willy Nilly Character

I made a character and separated its body parts, then added bones, and then reassembled as the tutorial said to do. Now, the only time the character shows up all put together on the canvas is when I hit the "manipulate bones" tool. Otherwise, the parts are separated like when I first rigged it. Is there a way to organize my character better?

If you go to frame 1 the character should appear 'together'? It is only separated on frame 0. That's how it should be.

Also, don't forget that on Frame 0, you can see how your character looks and adjust it using the "Offset Bone" tool.

Thanks again Thrashador. I now see that different stages of the workflow are accomplished on "frame 0" and others stages need be be on "frame 1"
