Well the first one I can help you with, alot of the pictures you see in the gallery were done with Poser 4, it will say which one it is, Poser 5 has some nice ones too. As far as the people coming out of the water you can do that with Poser 5 but I am assuming they used another software like Vue d'Esprit or Bryce and rendered there, of course you should read the bottom of the picture it usually says. I am not to sure about your second question though. Poser 4 does a very nice rendering pictures. Sharen
