... I forgot to reply to the other stuff.

One other bit - don't get too mad at folks for saying "...like in DS", because it's a great shorthand, which avoids too much mis-translation. I promise you that whoever is doing dev on Poser right now not only has a copy or three of DS handy, but that they've been picking it apart as well (assuming the devs have been hired.)

I get that, I really do. But one thing is "I want glow like in DS", another is "IT HAS TO BE IRAY BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT DS USES". One thing is "I want characters with broad support like Genesis", another is "POSER IS GOING TO DIE STUPID IF IT DOESN'T WORK WITH GENESIS".

PS: What's so bad about something glowing? Watching what happens when I set emissivity on a surface for the first time was almost akin to seeing a schoolgirl's bare breasts for the first time as a schoolboy (that is, both times made me think "wow - that was a lot easier than I thought!")

I never said anything against glow itself? I used it as an example because it was one of the things I remembered being asked here - I just mean that one doesn't require to switch to Iray to make a thing glow, when it comes to software/render development. (I won't mention the breast thing - for me it was as easy as looking down, but I still like'em)

Anyrate, you do have to admit that there are a few folks in here who have such a hate and loathing of certain other applications/companies/whatevers that they will happily drive out and shut down any conversation about how to improve the big P, yes?

Yes, and I also have a huge feeling that a lot of that hate and loathing comes from being completely unable to talk about this application without someone coming from the drains yelling about that application.

Eh, I've tried lo-fi radio, it actually made me annoyed instead. When I want pure melody to work, I tend to pull Keiko Matsui or the OST from Chrono Cross, but usually I prefer songs I can sing aloud along.
