As someone who is somewhat new to renderosity, I'm quite impressed by a lot of the art here. Yes, there are a number of stock nude poser works, but now and then I come across one that truly impresses. What makes it work is the total package. The composition, the theme, the feeling of the piece. For a long time the medium that I work in, fractal art, was seen as "non-art", because people did not understand the creative process involved in it,which more closely resembles sculpture and photography than painting. I've heard all of the "paint by numbers" rants, but the bottom line is that everyone that does fractal art knows that some people "have it", and some don't. My experience with viewing Poser art has been the same. Oh, I'm sure a lot of guys like to do it because it's, well.... enjoyable to them. ;) But the bottom line is, some people "have it", and some don't, and that, of course, implies art. J. Jane
