I'm new to Poser 6, but here are some of my likes and dislikes for each one:

Poser 5:

• Like the material room interface

• Like the Rendering Options interface

• Like the way premade lights preview in the pose room

• Don't like having to have to edit files in order to increase number of thumbnails viewed

• Don't like not being able to render a whole scene

• Don't like not being able to render in cartoon or sketch

• Don't like not being able to use the cloth room to work with conforming clothing as dynamic

• Don't like the cancelling function. Usually have to CTRL ALT DEL

Poser 6:

• Like not having to edit files in order to increase number of thumbnails viewed

• Like that you can render in sections

• Like the quicker cancelling ability.

• Like being able to take conforming clothes into the cloth room and make parts dynamic (without having to try and edit files). - Like the ability to render in sections.

• HATE the OpenGL and the way premade lights preview in the pose room.

• HATE the render options. I still haven't figured out how to render a thumbnail image for the library. In poser 5 all I did was select Poser 4, and set the size to 91x91.

• HATE that you can't render a draft image WITH shadows or whatever else you want in it.

• HATE the change to the material room interface.

That's as much as I've covered in my week of using Poser 6.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
