@William_the_Bloody - Great Gallery! Like NoelCan, I think you might be being a bit hard on yourself.  I wouldn't have known there was anything wrong, or that you didn't intend the images to be darker if you hadn't said anything. They are still very clear and well done. Monitor callibration can really mess things up. I have a dark image in my galllery that I did on a new laptop. I didn't realize it was so dark until I looked at it from another computer.

Regarding gallery comments - I'm always very happy with any comments I get. I don't expect any, so I'm never dissapointed! I also don't have a lot of time to spend making comments on other images, so I just don't expect any on mine. I have the same feeling about views as well. I'm always amazed that people find my images interesting enought to look at!

The nudity vs views thing is quite interesting, but in my rather limited experience/gallery, it's not quite 4X to 1. I have two images that are virtually identical except for nudity, and the one with nudity only has about 120 more views. If interested, see links below - warning they are rendered in Carrara - not Poser :-)

Re-visiting old renders is a great idea. A couple of years ago I re-did an earlier render (if rendering in Carrara is OK for this thread). I liked the idea of my original render, but always wanted to try it again. So I took the same idea/props and used V4 instead of V3. I think the second image came out better - but your opinion may be different. If your interested the lnks are below (nudity).

I've never been worth a darn with lighting in Poser - but when I got PP 2010 I promised myself I'd finally produce a decent image in Poser. When I'm done with it, I'll try to find the pz3 to one of my Poser images and redo it with PP 2010 - I'm sure it will be much better!

Oh - I almost forgot. My favorite image in your gallery is WTF? It's just got that little something extra in it that really grabbed my attention.
