I guess my point was when I go to a website that has a Poser gallery, I want to see
what Poser is capable of doing.  If I wanted to see what someone was capable of
doing with Photoshop, I'd go to a Photoshop gallery.   
I guess it's sort of like a favorite baseball player breaking the home run record,
and then it's found out he was using steroids.  Postwork is sort of like steroids for Poser.
Yes, the picture may look prettier with postwork, but that doesn't show me what Poser
can do.

This is absurd. This is a site for artists first and foremost. If you want to see what Poser can do by itself then goto Smith Micro for that. Your going to tell me that that images produced with any other app don't use some post work and or compositing? Based on this, nearly all images would be in the mixed medium catagory. I have seen lots of technically correct images from other apps on these galleries but Poser adds the element of the human condition and does it well.

If we want the galleries expanded to be more accurate (which I don't thing we need) then maybe we add another level to them. Lets have the ELITEIST section and the rest of us will just be the ARTISTS.

edit: BTW I took the opportunity to look at your gallery and was suprised to find it empty. Post some of your PURE work for us to be amazed by please.
