As a person who started using Poser for the sole purpose of rendering nekkid chicks and buying bondage props, I'd like to say that some folks don't upload an image thinking 300 years from now it will sit in some gallery next to a Rembrandt. There are a number of us who just enjoy making visual renderings just simply for the fun of it. I have the highest respect for those who do put a lot of time and effort into elevating their craft. But not everyone takes up Poser for that purpose. It's the same kind of thing as when modelers put down Poser users because they use 'pre-fabricated' models. Different strokes for different folks. (Hey Beavis, he said 'strokes'). And if I was truly pushing my craft and skills why should it matter how many "Attaboy" comments I get or what my average ratings are compared to others? What's needed for artists trying to better their craft is a "work-in-progress" gallery where real, quality feedback is given. I view the galleries often to see some awesome work that will inspire me to better my own skills. But I can also appreciate the "for the hell of it" Poser artists who put up a render of an untextured Judy in default pose - the 'artist' just happy to be part of something. Fin
