Just to back dml2000, I have used Poser 8 for all of my recent images (dating back to Aug. 12...check my gallery for examples). I don't know how complicated you'd call my renders, as they generally only feature one, sometimes two, figures...then with clothes, hair, sometimes props and background sets (but a lot of the time I render over pre-made backgrounds). I render on high settings, 300 ppi, and generally above 2000 px on the short side (although on this older machine using P8, I haven't been able to get above 2000 px on the large side without a crash midway through rendering). I render for print quality as I want to sell my art.

Anyway, some scenes I can get away with a few (3-6) test renders (which are not set at high settings, are much smaller, and are only 72 ppi), and some scenes it crashes after every render...that's when it gets frustrating. Since I consider myself an artist and I use Poser to create art that I want to sell, this memory issue is a problem. Once I get my newer system back, I'm hoping I won't have so many memory issues...but I'm not holding my breath. Crossing my fingers SR1 fixes these issues.
