Well, I have struggled for quite some time with Poser , yes finding this forum was the best thing that happened, however I am just going to the post office to collect this .Amazon.co.uk items (Sold by Amazon EU S.a.r.L.):

1  Infinite Skills Learning P...   £59.99               1   £59.99

Another tip is get a really good editing software , if you decide to make .mov 

Animations.

I use final cut , this means I can chop bits of animation to make my .mov

This year I made a 12min .mov using Poser8. 

Also working with Wings 3D a free programme to make .Obj file which will mean that I can one day make my own 3D clothing and Cars all that sort of thing.

Most important when you wish to jump on the computer because Poser has crashed go for a walk cool off drink a glass of cold water!!

Then if you really must Jump on the computer, do so I a cal and meaningful fashion.
