I just want to say.. If you're longing for Poser 5 in order to recreate their faces you MAY be in for a dissapointment. Yes, Poser 5 has the Face Room. Yes it works. To a degree. There are some facial features you can't make, imo there are too few control points (morphs) on Don/Judy's (the Poser 5 people that comes with the program) faces to REALLY make it look like "someone". But I think it depends on how you look from the start L And the face room is really great for creating various characters, so that multiple people placed in a scene won't look like they're all identical twins :o) Yes, a gig of Ram will make Poser 5 more fun. The more the merrier. Poser 5 in it's initial version (before the latest 2 Service Packs) was more or less useless, it may be that version that people have based their Amazon reviews on. Again, I'll say Go for 5. Untill a month or two ago I was an AVID Poser Pro Pack fanatic, but since SP4 I have been reformed GG Search this Forum For Geep's Primers (search for Primer) - he's currently reposting old ones and adding new, Poser 5 based tutorials :o) Also consider buying the video Poser 5 Demystified by 3-Axis. It is money well spent on how to do a LOT of things in Poser 5. Almost all content labeled Poser 4 and 3 will function perfectly in Poser 5, only VERY few exceptions, and those often have a workaround.


Ynsaen, thanks for the nice words blush

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
