I am a Poser purist for two reasons. I really do like to push the program to see what I can get out of it. Heh, I'm still learning P5 and now soon P6 will be coming out. The second reason is that even though I've got a powerful laptop, when I'm working in Paintshop, the laptop really hates it when I try to work in layers and slows down to a crawl.

The image I've provided the link for has absolutely no post touch up on the image itself. It came straight out of Poser. Since P5 doesn't provide an infinite sky like Bryce does, I replaced the grey background with a background sky I rendered in Bryce. I have other images where there was no post at all except for putting my logo on it. I like that, when I can push the program and get a picture out of it that all I need to do is put my logo on it. However, I will know the value of postwork in professional work. So I don't hate it or call it cheating. I just right now want to see what I can get Poser to do. I would really, really like to see more P5 materials for special effects. Importation of mats from Bryce would be wonderful! Light Gels like in Bryce in Poser would also be so wonderful! I'd like to learn to use Particles as mentioned by Connatic.
