Poser isn't really a modeling program for making meshes... although it comes with primitives (and there are various free sets you can add) and you can build stuff with scaled and rotated primitives. Export the model as an .obj into UVMapper and run with it. (This is good for simple stuff.) If you buy the ProPack, you can take your simple model (say a chair) and add something akin to bones, for animation purposes. HOWEVER, it is much easier to model an original mesh in just about anything else, and essential if you want organic curves. Poser's strength is its ability to pose and animate people. Some artists are making movie-quality people and hair. You will find a wealth of clothing, props, backgrounds, textures, etc., in these Forums... as well as some very helpful people. Many sites have tutorials. Carolly
