"yes. It just sailed over your head is all. The end result should be what's important. Nobody in their right mind thinks one person created Final Fantasy or Shrek, or even a simple 3d video game. In the end, composition of the piece should be most important, not whether you modelled it all yourself. Its like saying a painter isn't a real artist because he didn't grind his pigments." No it's not like any of the above. To use your analogy the poser software is like the the paintbrush and the pigments. No one is suggesting you make these. But to continue your analogy using someone elses textures and poses etc is like buying the paint and paintbrushes and then paying someone to put the paint on the canvas for you. Or in the piano analogy again the Piano is like the Poser software but then you get someone to write all the musical passages for you and then you assemble them into a song. Poser is a tool like the Piano or the paint brush and paint. The artist uses these tools to create their own origional work. The work is not origional if you use other persons creative endevours. Not the tools the creative use of the tools.
