Just an opinion but ...(and probably stating the obvious) Know your application well, don't be satisfied with learning the basics and then use them and only them forever more. Take some time out and learn all the keyboard shortcuts , all the different cameras, etc .. basically the more you learn about the app (poser) the easier using it is going to be. The troubles you have posing are the troubles everyone has. Poser has lots of options to help you (most of which I dont know). Barrie.
