Bought a copy of Poser2 from a computer store that was going out of business. Built my first original character using P2 using the body replacement technique. All the parts were created in a software package called Arena3D and imported into Poser as DXF objects. Individually alligned to the correct body part and then replaced one at a time to create a new character. So I can officialy say I've been creating original content for Poser since version 2. When P3 came out I jumped into using PHI files and quickly figured out how to make fully functional original characters. My first full character that I offered for free to the Poser community was Anti Pasto, an alien bipedal ant creature. At that time most people were only doing sinple props for Poser and, although I cannot confirm it, I believe it might have been the first original Poser character offered online for download. The website I offered it on was shut down after three days due to bandwidth draw ... ah, those were the days. LOL
