Hi Bushi and the rest of the Renderosity gang. Since this topic came about from Poppi and I, let me tell you what my first experience was. While taking computer graphics courses at a trade school, a classmate told me about this program from Fractal Design called Poser. Since I has a comicbook freak, I had to get my hands on this app. I went to Fry's Electronics in Sunnyvale California and picked it up. Believe me, I still have the original box! Anyway, that night, on my Mac SE working in 640x480 and quickly skimming over the User's Guide,I spent the late night creating a texture map in Photoshop of the Green Lantern, (Silver age version...Hal Jordan). When I applied the texture and hit Cmd r, I was totally happy. Although my version of the superhero was bald, I couldn't believe that this application was so easy to work with. I have to thank Larry Weinberg (and Fractal Design, Meta.., CuriousLabs)for making an app that has endured and just as easy yet so sophisicated to use with Poser4 and the ProPack. I can't wait to see what's in store for Poser 5! Default Guy
