Thanks Tom.  :)

I was looking around thier site at the various smaller packages (like the $49 ones) and wondered if maybe those would be a better option for me?  The only thing it has a small finished image size and it sounds as if you have to buy a lot of the content.  But some of the final images around supposedly using that package are pretty stunning.  Oh and ideally I'd like to be able to import my poser/daz figures which apparently you can't do with that either.
