Having gone to an art school with a strong emphasis on critique I'm often astounded at how thin skinned many poserites are about criticism. Maybe this arises from an underlying insecurity over considering oneself an artist while pushing the make art button.  The whole notion of what passes for art and who denotes themselves artists is even more confounding in this medium than the fuzziness that I've encountered in the realm of conceptual art. Admittedly, my poser and cg skills have a way to go before they compare to my abilities in other mediums (Hell, I've only* really* been doing this for a year and it's not exactly an intuitive medium) but frankly alot of what I see here is conform panty, click pose, slap coat of bagginsbill, and render clones... AND I might add, act like some kind of f'ing guru while preening over hack dreck.

Is it any wonder that poser is the laughing stock of CG?

Well, there's my blanket critique... please keep in mind that I have an abiding love for bad art, kitsch, poser, and geekdom.
