"So if Poser is so crappy and limiting, then why on God's green Earth are they copying it? I fail to see how STudio makes figures better???????" They made Victoria, Michael, and all of their older content specifically to be used with Poser, before D|S ever came out. They HAVE to make DAZ Studio somewhat similar just to ensure that their own creations work. :) Also, how could you make a figure posing and rendering program that's really so different from Poser? 3D modelers all say they're different, but I've tried tons of them and they all seem pretty similar to me. Of course, you're right in saying that D|S doesn't make the figures any better though. Now if the next versions of Victoria and Mike use D|S-specific technology, things could change. That's one of the reasons why I want to back DAZ Studio. I would rather know that the primary figures will always work as they should with my software than to have frills I will never use like the Hair and Face rooms. Just curious: can you completely mirror a pose in Poser 6, like what Firebirdz and D&M do with their pose collections? I just learned yesterday that it can be done in DAZ Studio, and was wondering if that's a standard feature in P6. Thanks, SnowS
