Yeah, Geep knows I think he rules. Smart, helpful, generous, and always patient. Yeah, dealing with Content Paradise to get the update was pretty bad. Yeah I have trouble with the focus of the Poser development, lotsa crazy node stuff few people understand with content in P6 weaker than P5, and it utterly mystifies me how people with craft can end up with figures that look as though the deveopers have never seen a real live nekkid person (those P6 knees/legs?!!!)... BUT although $129 is a huge amount to a person like me, I do not in anyway fail to apreciate the value being delivered... what other serious softwaqre of anykind is available at that price. And I must say, it SEEMS as though some of the people carping about P6 are the very people who will drop that kind of money for content in the marketplaces without a thought. It is simply because I have no money that I am so dependent on Poser for good content. I think it is good to prick ANY corporate entity over their product and service, and ultimately this is a free service to them since without accomadting criticism they will not thrive in the market place. Yeah, I think you should voice your criticisms loud. But I think you should apreciate that people have commited to a program that is problematic from a comercial strategy perspective and are providing nearly professional quality for a very "consumer product" price (I actually wish there was a true P6LE that had souped up P4 functionality only). I am waiting for teachers like Geep and non-profit developers to obnce again push this software to the limit and generously share the fruits of their effort and inventivness with us.
