"...our poor software." Yes, that's how I've been feeling, particularly since Poser 6 came out. I've been looking through the Bryce Gallery and the number of images being posted have dropped off so much it's depressing. I originally started using Bryce in order to put Poser figures in an environment that Poser couldn't provide. Well, environments and props in Poser have come a long way, baby. I'll buy Bryce 5.5 whenever it comes out and I'll buy 6.0 when THAT comes out because I like the program. I'm so glad that Bryce was saved, but I can't help but wonder when we'll get something truly new to play with. I didn't realize how much I needed "new". Bryce 5.5 will basically be a tweak with faster rendering. Fine. I'll be happy with faster rendering for now. But, man, I sure wish I had some new features to play around with. That seems like it's going to be YEARS down the road. If Bryce 6 is released within twelve months after the 5.5 upgrade I'll be amazed. Overjoyed, but amazed.
