MD: I started out posting the type of pics you mention (Poser figures, rendered in Bryce)in the Poser Gallery but found that there is a very cold reception for them there. They don't have a problem with 2d postwork, but rendering in Bryce (or any other program) is taboo there. From the Poser Gallery header: "This gallery is primarily for images rendered within Poser itself. Images of Poser figures rendered in other applications are still welcome, but what's the challenge in that? See how well you can do using it's basic rendering tools!" And the response I got from the Poser people tended to make me feel less than "still welcome". And almost no one looked at anything I put in the Mixed Media Gallery, so I brought it home to Bryce. (except some images that were really rendered in Poser. Not many of them). I look at it this way, MD. People model objects in Wings3D and other programs then bring them into Bryce, download free objects and photographic textures and use them in Bryce and no one objects. But use a Poser figure in a render and some folks do object. I will never understand this attitude. So in this matter, I have to agree with what Drac wrote (I don't get to say that very often, LOL, but I mean it).
