Poser needs official wiki.  The manual is only so so and it really doesn't get to the in depth information that some subjects need.

How are people supposed to know that white times white equals white instead of white squared or why red times blue eqauls black instead of purple?  When are we supposed to use bias as opposed to gain?  Why do I have to use both specular and diffuse, isn't one good enough?  What's a good starting point for render settings?  Dynamic cloth settings?  Lighting?  Why does my donut look like metal and my metal look like a donut?

WARK!
