Quote - Most clothing for Anastasia is dynamic at the moment.  IMHO it is well worth experimenting with and gaining at least some level of competency.

That's a nice outfit.  I don't have a lot of dynamic stuff.  I'm sure it is well worth it and I really would like to learn it; especially to use Ana.  Unfortunately I'm still very green in Poser and I'm having to work with a learning disability and I just don't understand a lot of stuff that I have read.  I don't even think I classify as a hobbyist LOL.    

I'm trying to learn the ins and outs of it as well as expand my ability in PP12 by reading information in forums/asking questions when I can't seem to find any answers that I can understand.  However, some of the replies make me feel increasingly stupid/like I should have known better than to even ask even though a lot of this stuff I'm asking about is geared towards new stuff only in this new version.  I guess people forget what it was like to be new to something and overwhelmed/frustrated/not knowing where to look.  I've actually tried to use dynamic cloth and I've watched several tutorials on the matter, but I just can't get anything to work for me properly.  I guess I'm just too dense b/c it still doesn't make sense :/    

A lot of the stuff I have found for instruction is geared towards say Poser 7 or older and some of the menus just don't translate over well to me since I'm trying to learn 12 with tuts from say 7 in addition to never having done the process before.  Accurate screen shots are important in helping me learn.  It would be nice if somebody took some of the dynamic things in this thread and did a tutorial for dummies with them, but I know that's probably too much to ask b/c it would take a while to make.  I think once I learn how to do it on one thing in the new version of Poser I would have a better understanding and be able to practice it.    

I wish they had practicle poser 9 or 2012, but I haven't seen it out yet.  I hope they write one.  I have the one for 7, but most of the files that came with it just didn't want to work when I tried them in PS7, most of the websites it sent me to were also gone....which is why I had such a hard time learning Poser and gave up on most of the "rooms".  I just now ventured into the material room b/c it was so easy to use in 12.  Guess that is what I get for getting to the party late b/c now it seems like a lot of people expect you to just know your way around Poser before you get PP12.  I was asked the other day by I guess someone I offended with a simple question in a forum why I got PP12 if I don't know how to use half of it....well simple I wanted 64 bit support and I got it on sale for 22 dollars after a credit reward...sorry didn't know that I couldn't buy the new one and be clueless!

I also tend to agree with imax24 and their thoughts on conforming clothing....I'm personally not going to buy just dynamic alone...at least not right now....so for me conforming and maybe a tad bit more casual would be good :)  I know it won't happen overnight, but it's hard waiting!
