Quote - You can render however you like. The point is if you want to depart from reality, then it will be your choice, and it will happen because you did it on purpose. This is very different from the renderer of Poser 7, which REFUSES to produce realism under any circumstances but heroic efforts on your part.

I prefer to start with real, then perhaps add a small light here and there for artistic reason. Particularly, I want photo-realism, i.e. I want to start with a photographic representation.

This is the single most important post ive read here in a long time , PLEASE have it tattooed on the forhead of all poser and even Daz dev's so when they look in the mirror in the morning they read it and remember :)

cheers
