One of things I notice is that alot of people who don't like poser have based their opinions on non-current versions they heard about once.
It's kind of strange to still see people at cgtalk say things like Poser is only stock textures...never fathoming that people paint their own or that poser has had a material editor for several versions.
But there is a reverse...you see more poser usage in the 2d section...where as illustration it is more excepted. Also more and more people have admited that poser is in their professional pipeline for one reason or another. Poser news gets time on the cg news board as well.
Sure poser is still used as an insult(some times even as an expressin of jelously..do a search for night elf on cgtalk...look at the eyecandy then read some of the first page comments) and is banned from use in cgtalk challenges but that doesn't mean people don't use it there. And if the image is good you can get some balenced critiques if you included what you did exactly.
