...and you m'dear need to point out where the analysis is wrong.

Seriously - the point still stands. If you think I missed something, then kindly point it out.

Quote - My current investment in Antonia is 12$ for the morphs and 5$ for the CrossDresser plugin. The only thing that is missing before having a fully operational figure is some way of reusing the texture libraries. I don't think that 17$ to reach this point are bad.

So let's see... 

$40 for D|S and the Vicky 5 morph kit.

...compared to...

$262 for Poser 9 and the Antonia morph kit.

(That's a whole lot of dosh just to feel all smug, innit?) 

Now - let's go back to that rank newbie's POV. How eager do you think he or she will be to splurge on the Poser option?

Let's assume for a moment (I know, I know) that the newbie doesn't spend his mornings shouting curses in the direction of Utah, or carries his own personal pin-filled Dan Farr looking Vudu Doll under his pillow. Think about this... which one is the least risky option here, money-wise? 

Now I don't know about you, but I for one refuse to shell out half the price of a new iPad just to test the waters in a new hobby that I'd never tried before, especially if there's a cheaper way to ease into it. Now how about you?
