To bjbrown,

You are Misinterpreting the point, we all love the artistry in poser post work, it is truly cutting edge and beautiful. I myself am not attacking poser painters; they are some of my fav artists. What I am saying it's equally difficult to get a 3d figure rendered in 3D space to look realistic. This is the ongoing quest of CG in TV & Film. Look at the Hulk, awesome CG but we still have a long way to go (I am not comparing Poser to Maya.)

About your comment on if you do a straight render, you don't possess 2D PS or Painter skills, now that is a superiority attitude, I make a living on PS and After Effects and personally choose not to use it when I am rendering in Poser.
