i started with daz studioabout two years ago
about 6 months later bought poser5
a few months later upgraded to poser 7

i still do some things in daz studio even with poser figures i load into it i have daz content dir
and i have the poser7 dir
anything i load into poser7 i can usealmost all of it in daz

i'm still learning new things in both programs and with all the different sites out there you can 
get almost anything you want free if you don't find it there are artist's out there who will make
it for you for free

a person just has to look and try different site's
