I'm sorry you lost all of your content.  Like any loss we all go through a grieving process, part of that is being angry.

Everyone's grieving process is different and some take longer than others getting through each stage.

In time you may find that you want to dealve back into Poser.  However, it is possible that you have reached the end of the road with Poser and will find something else, more statisfying to fill that time.

I've had several hard drive crashes and have lost gigs and gigs of material. Even whole runtimes. I eventually redid my runtimes, and managed to redownload all of my purchases, but many of the freebies that I had collected were lost to me.

Until this last week, the last time I was inside Poser to do more than a quick beta test (few) and take a screenshot to help someone was November 2008!

Last week I opened Poser to actually make a render, and I did!  Took many starts and stops, crashes, reboots etc, but I did manage to get something done.

I can't say that my interest in Poser is peaked to the point that it was. Which is a good thing because I used to spend way too much time hiding behind a computer screen instead of socializing in the real world.  But I know it's there should I feel the spark of creativity.

"It is good to see ourselves as others see us. Try as we may, we are never
able to know ourselves fully as we are, especially the evil side of us.
This we can do only if we are not angry with our critics but will take in good
heart whatever they might have to say." - Ghandi
