DeathMetalDesk - you're onto something there. But I think it's more things. Some strive to do photorealism with Poser - I do that sometimes, full knowing that it's a herculean task. But not completely impossible. I HAVE seen renders where I havent' been totally certain whether it was a render or a photo. but it takes skill and a certain degree of "cheating" (as in postwork)

Some, otoh sees Poser as just another medium. Just like a marble statue won't ever look like a real, stuffed human on a plinth, neither will Poser. And neither SHOULD Poser, in their opinion.

What annoys me is that there are those who use Poser as a sort of dirty word. Like "it's only Poser" is something derogative. Of course, if you've just spent.. what? $1000 on Max or Maya and someone with a mere $200 program can do better, I can see why people may feel a little miffed. But then again, Poser is and will enver be and have IMO no intentions to ever be Max or Maya. Poser is a program for *"ordinary" people. A program you can start making your very own p0rn in after 30 minutes ;)

(and that, in the end is probably why Poser has this .. reputation...;))

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
