Look, it's all a bit storm in a teacup, isn't it? Poser users seem to be trying to validate their efforts in GC. Why? A sunday driver doesn't try to validate his use of a motor vehicle to a race-track driver: two different purposes, a totally different skill set... both are driving a vehicle.

I write shader scripts (don't laugh, BB, I do! ) and am developing dynamic cloth mesh for use in the Poser cloth room. People pose figures to render images that end up as stories somewhere. Illustrators of manuals use Poser to show "how it's done" - better than line drawings, well, my line drawings, anyway. No, we don't make our own meshes (figures, anyway) from scratch. Doesn't make our entries into GC any less valid.

Of course, if we want to claim those entries are "art" - different arena with more exacting critics. Be prepared to have your ego bruised.
