alright, me being a total newb to several new concepts in poser 5 and the poser 5 manual being very difficult for me to read, I am wondering just in a nutshell, no wind effects or any crap like that, I load up a judy character, then I go to props, dynamic clothes, female, and I load up a dress, then I move any part of the girl's body and voila, nothing happens, so what am I supposed to?

A dynamic clothing item in Poser 5 is a static (non-posable) mesh. It doesn't conform like regular P4 clothes, and won't move automatically with the figure. You have to run the cloth prop through the Cloth Room and calculate the dynamics, which makes it behave like real cloth.

A short tutorial is available at Render-Lab.

First off, go to Serge Marck's site and read his excellent tutorial on clothes. I think the link is in the R'osity tutorials.

Second, dynamics only work if you animate them. The fabric doesn't drape in frame one. And if you want the flow of cloth responding to her movement, she has to actually move. Easy solution: drape her/cloth her in the zero'd out position (the modified Da Vinci, which you get from a button on the joint editor). Then skip forward ten frames and pose her. When you animate the ten frames, the cloth will conform to the move to the pose.

This is the fast and dirty explanation. Take the time to read Serge Marck's tutorials (and pick up some great clothes while you're there).
