Lots to respond to. 

@BadKittehCo -- "Ha ha, I thought about Steve coopers Job for a minute, but I only have about 60-70% of the qualifications they need at best...." It's funny. When I talked to a job recruiter, he was handing me a bunch of job prospects, and I'm saying, "Wait -- this one requires five years experience, this one requires knowledge of x software, etc," and he said, "Nah, they just put all that in to discourage the chumps. No one expects you to have all those qualifications." Then I read an article that claimed that on average men who apply for jobs have 50% of the stated qualifications, while on average women have more than 90%. Could be that women feel they need to overcompensate by looking better on paper; could be that, thanks to our culture's particular method of handling romantic interactions means that men get a lot more practice aiming high and getting rejected; could be something else entirely. In your case, you can't relocate (and art school is cool!). Otherwise, you might be perfect for the job. :)

your bills. I doubt that most vendors are, or even expect to -- but I certainly don't claim to know.

I'd actually be much more interested in building a new knockout figure for Poser....  but they know that already... and I don't want to make one as a small time community effort, to have another figure die a slow painful death because of no marketing behind it.   I can certainly build something that is technically and aesthetically competitive. ;)
