Hey everyone... Ok, Im gonna get flamed here for sure but it needs to be said. Bryce is a great piece of software. Excellent way to learn the basics and get yourself started. BUT... it really doesn't compare to Lightwave or Maya or any other industry standard. Sure, you can make nice images in Bryce the same as you can in anything else but, and I speak with considerable experience, Bryce can only be used for very limited things. Bryce is extreamly limited and for that I can understand why people give it the slag that they do. But Bryce is for most people a way to enjoy something without paying alot of money.. and thats the bottom line. -dash101
