hehehe yes Poser is very confusing... I have basically the same ritual, although sometimes I confess I burn dinner playing with poser too long. I started using poser only a few months ago. It has gotten harder as I find new things I want to do and learn about... There are always questions like what is this file format do? Right now Im stuck on learning about cr2 and what they do and how to edit, and why to edit. lol But there are some good tutorials out there, but sometimes I wish there were some completely dedicated to some of the questions I have. Those are hard to find. :D but good luck and most of all have fun :D
