Quote - It's a Artistic trick that's been around for a long long time.

I believe some Renaissance fellow measured a bunch of sculptures and paintings and came up with the numbers. His results were popularized by Da Vinci, but these particular ideal proportions had been around since the ancient Greeks.

@Netherworks -- Exactly. The only reason I can think of to stick with a version of Poser before 9 is that your machine is too old to run it, or you keep missing the sales on Amazon. Even the cost of a copy of Poser 9 can't be much of a barrier -- it's a couple of outfits for V4.

I can't imagine using Poser 8 or older any more. 

PP2014 was absolutely worth the upgrade price to me. And I don't use half of its features.

I don't know why people resist improvements to software, unless their hardware won't support it, or the software is far too expensive. Given how much people spend on content -- Pre-Poser 9 content, at that -- I find it hard to believe the price is what's stopping most of them.
