I could not agree with you more, Poser is what it is today because people could open up the cr2 files and read them and then figure out how to tinker with them. It's the grass roots users that pushed the software where it is today. Yep, don't mention Poser in the 3d software forums unless you are ready to duck the rotten tomatoes, although it's made some real advances it's got someways to go yet. Right now Poser is positionned where it needs to be which is easy enough for the hobbyist to use, that's how it's gotten what I suspect is a huge user base. It's appealing because there is a ton of products available, make it too complicated to rig and the cost/profit ratio of developing products will no longer be advantageous since users have gotten used to inexpensive products over the last few years.
