This entire thread is bumming me out.  Post after post of utterly failing to read the OP's tone and emotion behind frustration with Poser. 

Do you seriously think OP is trying to render the box art?  It's a figure of speech...hello?

Secondly, OP has been here for 1000 years.  It's not a lack of experience with Poser on OP's part.

Thirdly, we've all heard F-all about bloody Blender and Vue.  Seriously.  The OP is not begging for new software.  OP is frustrated with Poser and expanding outside of poser is, OP contemplates, perhaps more of a chore for the return.

What is frustrating OP about Poser, specifically?  It's not about specifics.  My guess it's a little bit of everything, because Poser is an equal opportunity frustrater. 

Like most classic miscommunications, OP is venting and here comes an army of "fix-it" techno people and you know what all of that does, (I'm guessing?)  It makes OP more frustrated because there's literally nobody in the community to sympathize.  

I, for one, do.  Same boat, OP.  I worry there are no answers for us.
