I'm with ya on the "not a poser person right now" bit.  I was one for years.  Used it exclusively up until february of this year.  I had tried D|S back when it first came out and thought it was poo.  Tried again when version four came out because I was tired of having to fight to get clothes to fit right.  Now, I'm heading more in the direction of content creation instead of just art.  With Poser, setting up materials(for me) is just too darn difficult.  I don't need to know the inner workings of what does what.  I just need to see the magic.. and studio let's me "see the magic" without having to burn up too many much-needed brain cells.
