Drac, unfortunately, a lot of people favor poser, particularly if it involves sexy-looking figures. I know it's frustrating, but this is a great piece, you have good instincts. Don't let other people's preference's distract you from creating what you like. I'm saying this not to be cliched, but because I do it to myself all the time - try to create something other people will like. It usually turns out crappy. When I just do something that appeals to me, it turns out much better and occasionally, other people like it too. Lin
