I think it is an understandable reaction of Infinite buyers to want to experiment with the new features. I do see a real risk though of Vue artwork going the same way as Hollywood blockbusters: not making what inspiration or vision dictates, but just making the most spectacular the computer can do. Just as in the movies, special effects alone will never be enough. Pictures such as now appear in the gallery are usually just overcrowded with detail; even the master of minimalism, Kenwas, hasnt been able to resist the impulse to strew the courtyard of his recent "Neuschwanstein" with Poser people... But I do hope and trust that in time well see truly artistic and tasteful use of this undeniably powerful feature. Probably in the end we will have some very good, some pretty awful, and much in-between work made with V5I, just as I`m sure we'll continue to have very good (and very bad, and much in-between) work made with earlier versions of Vue.
