Hi PhilC, I went to your website. Is the 3D modeling CD ( poser 5 ) for a completely beginner like me? I'm interested in buying it, though. Also, Could you advise me what other softwares/programs do I need to work with poser 5? I have photoshop, carrara studio 2 and vue 4 ( I haven't opened these boxes, will return to their merchants if they are not needed ). Thank you very much for your insight. Rabit,
