Quote - True, but many of those "elite" could model a V4 type figure, rig her up, UV and texture and animate her all in one day.
For as little tact as some of them display in how they treat Poser users, they've at least earned the right to look down their noses at Poser.
But they don't all do it. I've seen many "elite" defending the hobbyists and n00bs, and Poser too.

I've never seen any of the elite, like Steven Ståhlberg for example,  bad-mouth us Poser users.   No, most definitely it's not the "elite" doing it but the wannabe elite, you know the type that model and render (probably in a pirated maya) an apple in a bowl and expect everyone to drool.

No one IMO earns the right to rip others apart like that in a community art forum just because they use a  particular software application.   It would be like a teacher berating her students for knowing less than her.
