Hi all,

I've been using Bryce since version 5.0. I was still working those impossibly long hours at work, so my brain was too frazzled to do much. Since I retired, I've been doing more, and joined up at Renderosity to foist my renders in the gallery. I took on DAZ when it just changed from 2 to 3. I also only use it to clothe up my characters and pose them, or to open textured objects. Usually, I texture in Bryce because I don't like or understand the surfaces in DAZ and I don't even know how to make a scene in DAZ! In Bryce The lights seem easier to me, I just create'em  and push them around until something looks right. Not professional at all.

I most sincerely, with all my heart, hope that Bryce is not "updated" any more. Just make some other product instead of pretending its the same. I can't stand the amount of work it's taking to re-find my way around DAZ4 just to load a model into a scene. Heck, I still use my Bryce 5.5 for stuf I rendered in that!

What I like about Bryce is flying around inside of a little place I've created and rendering a scene that I've created with props that seem to suit each other. I usually like calm subjects for my renders. I like to get a certain expression or gesture just right with the lighting setting a mood.  So this is me.
