The galleon is .99 and looks to be a handsome model. I suspect that as CP expands there will be an entire range of items in all price categories for everyone from hobbyist to professional. As to the price of the anatomy COLLECTION, yes, you can get a Maya seat for that amount. Then you can spend the next 18 months learning Maya and however long to accurately model all the bones, cartilege, ogans, nerves, and muscles. When was your deadline again? How much is your time valued at? If something is out of your price range, don't quibble just don't buy it. DAZ with the Platinum Club took the bottom out of this user's market so that many artists don't earn anywhere near what their time is worth. A professionally made model is worth this sort of price to professionals. Not all Poser users are hobbyists, after all! Just because an item is cheap doesn't mean it lacks quality... same in reverse. So you look to your needs (not just your desires) and see what something is worth to you at that moment. Remember also that Content Paradise may not really be set up for us old-timers, but for all the newbies who get this program at CompUSA or order it through MacMall or PCConnection. Someone doing courtroom forensics or teaching at a hospital or whatever is not going to be lurking around these forums waiting for bargains to be announced or freestuff uploaded. Carolly
