Ditto, would like to see your shader nodes as well! Nice examples, BTW.

However, I must take issue with your statement: "As for anybody else, I'm sure it makes DAZ feel very happy to see people continually blame CL and P5 for things they just don't understand. It just makes me laugh. :-) "

I'm not laughing, that's for sure. Only after the 3rd SR was Poser 5 acceptable. My frustrations (now and then) with Poser 5 don't come from a lack of knowledge about the software, but rather from a lack of programming skill, annoying (often debilitating) REAL bugs, and broken promises from the authors of P5.

Would I go back to Poser 4? HECK NO!! But to say that Curious Labs isn't at fault for a serious let-down (and downright travesty of a release), causing much of the negativity and cynicism, is going a bit far. Sure there are people who simply don't understand the material room (for example), but that doesn't mean there aren't some VERY SERIOUS problems with Poser 5 and CL's handling of the entire situation.

But hey, I know this ground has been covered a million times before. I'm just baffled there are still people out there defending CL at all costs, like nothing was wrong. Now THAT makes me laugh! ;-)
