I definitely agree about WW.   Morph Magic has its uses, too.

Xena said, "I'd suggest getting Poser 6, not 7 if you plan on rigging anything within Poser."

That's interesting;  would you be prepared to go into more detail (I actually have P6 and P7 installed side by side), please?

I have had a few Poser 7 crashes.   One recent scene always rendered all the way through in its entirety.   When the scene was complete and saved and I spotted something that needed changing, P7 crashed immediately, as soon as I tried to revert to the preview.   None of this blah about not enough memory to load a texture - it was "Next stop:  Desktop."  

For my purposes, I think P7 is an improvement on P6, but, having said that, I fairly frequently import from Poser to Carrara, which means going from P7 to P6 first (and then to C5).   P6 always identifies that the P7 input is from a later release, but imports it without a hitch.   That probably says quite a lot about my poverty of invention, but I suspect it says something, too, about the real extent of innovation within P7.
