Quote - A hugh portion of images proudly tagged as "no postwork" seem very unfinished to me, probably because, as JoePublic points out, there hasn't been enough attention paid to lights, textures, and shaders. At the moment, it's almost as though just saying "no postwork" gets you off the hook for these things.

A gallery dedicated to showcasing just what can be done inside Poser might well elevate the general expectations of what an unpostworked render should look like.

I'm all for it.

  As one who posts no postwork tagged images, i agree with this comment, but as much as images are judged on the 5+ hours or whatever of postwork that goes into them in very often not inexpensive art and graphics programs, i think the "artist" if we are allowed to be called that without postworking has the same rights to be judged on the image and i don't consider to be an excuse....one quote from the Smith Micro website "With Poser’s new Subsurface Material nodes, you’ll transform your scenes into rendered masterpieces with lifelike translucent surfaces"
