Hi I was playing around with ideas to create my mouseski pic before christmas and well this might be an idea. first create your background in poser, in the experiment I used some trees. render them as has been said against a neutral background. 2nd take the image into psp or pshop and crate a mask (transmap) 3rd use a combination of the image and the mask on a bacground prop (square, infinite cove, cyclorama etc ) this was an experiment which I'm sure has been done before but it may help Dave
