Another former long time DS user here. I mainly used DS to get figures into Vue. I never went any further than DS2.3 as that was all I needed.

When I saw the promo images coming out of PP2012 I was gobsmacked and pre-ordered immediately. Nothing to regret there - I love my new Poser and would never go back to DS. In fact Vue is barely getting a look-in from me now even though one of my excuses for buying Poser was to better import figures to Vue.

As a totally new Poser user I found it very easy to figure out and use and if I get stuck there's actually a really helpful manual!

I found the Genesis figure to be an utter turn-off, so I don't miss the fact it doesn't work properly in Poser one bit.

Hope you enjoy your new Poser once you've figured it out! :)
