I realise it isn't enuff just to ignore bad images, and it's wrong just to say they're bad without offering information on how to improve them. we might be able to offer contructive criticism if it were supported (e.g. no lynch mobs allowed when a critic sez something's wrong) and if there were a set of links to direct folks who post bad poser renders, a set of "how to do it" links: good lighting good shadows avoiding nostril glow eye reflections facial expressions proper body part proportions dynamic pose methods use of clothing use of props background creation scene set-up material room settings render settings I know that links exist at which all these are described, but I just don't have them organised in any coherent fashion, and I doubt anyone will stick their necks out until we get some assurance from the ptb that criticism will be supported, and that critics won't be left to fend for themselves.
