Welcome Radeon! Hopefully I won't be the only one who responds to your post! In my opinion Poser4 is quite powerful for the low price (check Amazon or bbay for it). I've used Poser4 for about 2 years and had very little trouble with it (most of the problems were things that I did wrong). I've debated updating to Poser5 but, I've read WAY too many complaints about it in the forums. I would also need to upgrade my CPU for it - the CPU ain't broke so I ain't gonna fix it ;) On a side note, you may also want to get a good postwork program like Photoshop or PaintShopPro since the rendering engine in Poser isn't perfect. I prefer Photoshop but, that one cost me a bundle ($580). My roomie has PSP and it does just as well. I've seen it for under $200. Well, that's my -5 cents worth. Hope it helps! CyberscapE
