Ockham, you are right. I wish I could afford more of your store stuff but times are lean for me. I just am stuck back in the twentieth century with Poser. I miss the old dyas when it was more DYI then a consumer hobby. I don't think I purchased any content other than the Victoria 2 Reduced Resolution base until Poser 6 came out. There was a lot of cool sharing then... I had a site personally with hundreds of Posette and Dork Morphs I had made along with other stuff. Too sick now to model and texture and code like I did back then. Really I regret the scene moving from Poser 4 in a way (actually my favorite was PoserProPack)... now it is trying to be MAX or something, a hi-CGI but back then it was very primitive and the work had its own look and people achieved so much pushing the simple .cr2 and .pz2 files current the. I got more work done back when painting clothes and hair in post-work was the state of the art... people used a simpler app and  content and focused on narrative and composition and inventivness and now Poser work is more like other high end CGI without that sown home primitive work. I used to make so many more scenes then... even often just exporting Poser preview screens to Photoshop for Post work. I swear I would still use the old PoserProPack if it could load libraries with sub-folder etc. I feel I caught myself in a productivity sink hole with trying to get "Render Realism". Look at my gallery and you'll see the changes I'm talking about in my own work. I just feel Poser is so market driven now with so few people left like you who just share no how and expertise as a reward in itself.

nrudock, thanks. I'll check the link. You know when it happens that you and a certain person just can't communicate... for some reaason I just can't figure out BginsBill's stuff like everyone else... I'm tuned on a different wavelength. He has been a good sport and tried with me but I am just overwhelmed by things like his tools... the results people get are great but I'm just insufferably dumb about them which is too bad because I sure like what other people get from them :)
