I admit - I love Hex and would continue to work with that if it didn't have the problems it has.  Crashing, normals reversing etc.  I just want a simple work flow.  Vilters wrote an entire tutorial for me to get morphs from Hex into Poser and it's great.  But the process is a headache.  Especially since the morphs I want to create currently are for both feet and I have to do a full body morph just to get them.

Maybe that will be the same in other programs too.  Right now I just want to try and see if something else suits me better.  

Silo has a 30 day demo - full featured - that is awesome.  So I am going to try that and Blender the next few days and see which one meshes well with me.

I know I should really just be teaching myself to do everything in C4d, but that program is just so not user friendly for me.  I keep saying I will learn, and I suppose when I have 6 months to devote to just learning, I will.

Thanks for the response Laurie.

Idiot clause:  I also discovered recently that I installed C4d to the wrong place.  X86.  Sooo I also need to uninstall and reinstall before using it.  Which is a pita too.
