Well, the good news is that you've been using Poser. Poser and Carrara's interfaces and GUI's are very similar, so you probably won't have a lot of trouble getting around. I used Infini-D a LONG time ago and don't remember it all that well, but did make the jump from Infini-D to RayDream Studio without much trouble. The basic concepts are the same. Carrara has most of the functionality of Infini-D, but it's in different places. Sometimes it's hard to find where certain features have been put, but after going through the manual (and not skipping the parts I thought I already knew), I'm getting comfortable with it. And Carrara Studio 2.1 has some really powerful features that neither Infini-D nor RayDream had, so it really is worth spending the time to get to know. I don't think you're going to be all that lost. - Dex
