but i didn't really do anything!! hehehe. i just posed it

 There's also the issue of being honest about what in the scene is trully of your work.

When your parents ask you "did you do ALL that by yourself?" Do you anwser "Yes"?

Well... "Do" is subjective here.

My hubby is a photographer, but he is hardly God Almighty.-.. he hasn't created anything of what he photographs. Still his pictures are his work - and some of them, I would even call Art.

Whenever I try to explain the concept of Poser to someone who doesn't know squat about 3D, I liken it to a Barbie in a studio where you take a pic of said Barbie. That at least makes the concept understandable for people.

And Poser is like photography. Fashion photography mostly, but other genres may apply as well. Some pics can be likened with a still from a movie. The director doesn't build thing things in his movie either, but he visualises it and makes it come alive. We're both directors and photographers at the same time with Poser, but it's still OUR OWN vision we bring to life, regardless of what the content of the pic may be.

As for whenever something is Art (with or without a capital A) - I would define art as "something that evokes emotions" I may see a stuffed puppy displayed in a museum as "Art" - and HATE it - but the moment I HATE it, it becomes art by my own definition. Not all art is something you like. 

Well in the case of photographs, everyone knows you are not god and you didn't "create" what's in the picture, but not so in 3D images, the only one who can tell which stuff was made by you and which bought/downloaded is you (or another poser user that can recognize the models).
