Poser has rarely worked the way I believed it should.  :lol:  There are limitations to the software.  These beget workarounds, futzes, half-measures, and kludge procedures.  And sometimes brilliant inventions or discoveries.  Many things would be simpler in Poser if the software were modified to fully integrate or accommodate them.  One of the best things about Poser is that it's open and tolerant enough to allow us to experiment and come up with ways to try to get slightly better results out of it.  The result is just complex, or can be.

On the other hand, Blender and other programs can do almost anything you can want.  And they're even more complex!  And they don't make it easy for you with a lot of built-in content.

I wouldn't say you're looking for a Make Art button.  Sometimes things really are unnecessarily complicated, or flawed, or ill-documented.  Or just broken.  A certain face-shaping software made me send a few e-mails with sentiments similar to those you're presenting, when it turned out to be utter rubbish.  It's good to try to pursue greater accessibility and ease of use.  But 3D graphics is hard, as I think BB has pointed out.  It's easier to put an idea into a sketchbook than to work it out in Poser, in my experience.  If I could draw feet and properly handle linear perspective, I'd probably have switched back to traditional media years ago.  :lol:

Cage can be an opinionated jerk who posts without thinking.  He apologizes for this.  He's honestly not trying to be a turkeyhead.

Cage had some freebies, compatible with Poser 11 and below.  His Python scripts were saved at archive.org, along with the rest of the Morphography site, where they were hosted.
