Not to pick fights, Carolly, but did you read the survey? The only thing I spotted that had anything to do with what gets asked for around here is support for graphics cards and multi-processors. Squat about the bugs, or the fact that Poser's central paradigms are several generations back and increasingly need complicated and cludgy patches to keep up -- ditto for the core code. I can tell you what Poser 6 looks like without taking a survey. It will look almost exactly like Poser 5 except that the preset libraries will be bigger, take up more interface space, but be a little more organized and efficient. The presets will be based around a "Don2" and "Judy2" figure, include some simple settings and famous buildings (low resolution models only), and there will be a Scene Wizard to throw it all together. There will also be a couple more "gee whiz" functions that work unevenly; better real-time preview using major graphics cards (but not OpenGL) and Radiosity will be hacked into Firefly; a very slow radiosity, but still there. And by version 6.2.1 all these new functions will actually work.
