I like Shade 7. I have Standard installed though, so I never bothered with the LE version I got with P6. The rendering engine is way better than Poser. I even had them ask about publishing one of my shade images. It was just a quickie moved from poser to Shade to render. Can we say HDRI. But like everything, something works for one, it's complete crap to another. I can't stand Truespace. Shade and Wings combined I find the better way, for me that is. I will most likely buy Shade 8 when it comes out.
