I rarely look in the Poser gallery, but I often look in the Poser Hot 20, just to see what's going on in there. I hate to say it, but generally, the Poser gallery just doesn't have stuff that interests me, and I'm more likely to find the types of pictures I like in the Lightwave, Cinema 4D, Truespace, Bryce and Vue galleries. I tend to browse those galleries quite often, though I rarely comment anymore, but still there are a few Poser-specific artist's whose work I like, and after you've entered their names in the "By Artist" field, they stay there (at least in IE), so it's easy to check on the progress of those who I have personally deemed "worthy" of my time. And there are ALOT of them, for that matter, even in the Poser gallery, but as time goes on, I'm thinking the vast majority of Poser renders just ain't doin' it for me, particularly the never-ending barrage of pinups. I'm more into the technical side of this whole 3D thing, and it's really not that impressive to see a pic of a character someone bought, plopped into Poser, rendered, and that's it. The Poser renders with exceptional post-work, lighting and textures are the ones which grab my attention. But then again, I'm getting mighty bored with Poser altogether.....
