Currently getting Poser figures into bryce is like getting a camel through a keyhole ... possible but it takes serious finessing. If daz can smooth over that pothole it will open up a new user base. I think that DAZ picked up Bryce because more poser users are wanting full environments, something that Poser does not do natively and that poser5 implements errr ... badly. And yeah, not all Bryce users want or need Poser content, but frankly at this point any corporate backing for Bryce is better than none at all, no? I certainly hope they don't mess with the interface .. I've always found Bryce to be the easist most intuitive program of all my 3d apps. (and I've been using it since version 3 or so)
