Just to be totally confusing...it's my hobby, but the reason I started using it (after having V2 on a magazine cover-disk for years) was seeing it used professionally in a 3D studio where I was doing some contract web work.  Although the main apps in the studio were Maya and Max, they also used Poser, Bryce, etc. for specialised bits and pieces.  Seeing what they did with Poser characters postworked in Photoshop is what gave me the 3D bug.
