Bummer. The model I can understand. I guess they think someone will rip off the hair. The hair doesn't look very good when you enlarge it to the size of a Poser render anyway. You'd have to do a lot of work on the edges and blending it with the render. It could be a good base I suppose but I think you're still going to be doing a fair amount of painting. Someone had some free hair pics like this, may have been here in freestuff. I think they were for putting on a plane prop with transparency and rendering in Poser. You can make your own if you can find the photos. The problem with this technique would seem to be that your figure's face would have to be in the same orientation as the person in the picture. With all the blending and color matching and lighting issues, I'd say you're better off with one of the many fine free hair pieces unless it's a unique style and you're usually do a lot of hair postwork anyway.
