For my half-pennies worth, I think a "no postwork" category or genre would be great.

I'm a newcomer to Poser... only got it when the current version came out last year.

Seeing better what things different people can get out of it, "straight", as it were, would be good.

To date, what few Poser renders I've posted in my gallery are not post-worked... that's largely due to my just being more focused on learning to use Poser and wanting to see what results I can get with that... it's forcing me to learn more about the poser material nodes and lighting... than if I just over painted in Photoshop, from the get-go.

However, got PS CS5, so would like to learn to post-work my images too, where it might be of benefit, in due course...

I'd almost like to see an explicitly "post-worked" category or genre in addition to a "no-post-work" one, from that point of view.

More interested in learning to use my PS software for textures right now... but as I learn more about the Poser material room though, from these forums, it seems there is so much can be done there just with the procedural and maths nodes anyway...

...as a hobbyist here, I am using Poser just for the sake of it... although I still l have pressures of time of course... if not any client deadlines... to consider, just for the very reason that it has to be fitted in around my work and family life.

Anyway, good topic of discussion I think :-)
