I rather like Daz Studio, from the little I've used it. I need to take time and get into it more, then the inevitable spending spree on the Genesis 3 stuff and so forth...

Meanwhile, I'm still using and enjoying Poser. I don't see a problem with using both, or any other software that gets the job done. I mean, I don't stick to one single brush size or paint colour and I'll paint on hardboard (masonite) just as happily as canvas or anything else.

Software wars are just plain silly. Whatever gets the job done is the right tool for the job. I will say, however, I wish Poser had a serious challenger to the Victoria hegemony, right out of the box. Having Gabe to fix Alyson was great but maybe Smith Micro should have just given him the job of building the damn thing in the first place.

I can never find anything in Studio. It's like when I first picked up Blender.

If there's anything you think I can help you with just ask. Or someone who uses both. I'm sure they can help ya. You are able to organize your DS libraries like you can Poser so that it's easier to help you find things. That was my biggest hurdle (and frustration) when I started using it, but I stuck with it. I think it behooves people to learn to use both programs. Let's face it - everything dies, including us, and software much more frequently. At least if you know both programs you still have something to use if one suddenly disappears ;). Or not. LOL

Anyway...sorry to go off track :)
