I am sorry, but I am one of those people who really hates poser... I feel it takes away from the true spirit of CGI. After all, it's not about playing with dolls, it's about creating something out of your mind, everyone sees poser figures and oo0h's + aaah's however, it's too easy. Granted, take note that I am talking about the unfortunately large quantity of images that feature a poorly exported poser figure rendered in bryce with a shoddy 5 minute background job. Using a poser figure to put a tiny touch in a final image is great, take that recently posted "floating giants" or whatever it was, an amazing image, with the final detail of a poser figure. I wish there was an option to see "all galleries BUT poser" when searching for an image, unfortunately that is not possible. By now you can probably tell that I hate poser, and sadly I do, I think it has permanantly damaged the world of CGI and I wish it were never created.. For an example of what I mean look at the magazine cover winners... poser, poser, poser, poser ,poser... makes you insane, that people probably spent more time on some of the other images submitted, however poser "looks good" to people who don't really know about CG, they think it's a more challenging/better looking image, so let them have it. As for me, I'd rather see a brycian mirror ball render than those.
