Oh, good grief. For pity sake....Don't you remember when you all first got Poser4. I had Poser 1 forever...that was mostly an excercise in Bryce, and, epainting....it needed so much postwork, i basically was just using it as a base figure and doin' my best to paint by numbers from my head to create. but, i had fun. Here's what i think. this person...obviously new to poser...found a jpg that he/she liked and, used it as a background. i've got one in my gallery that i made the same mistake on....and, i had had poser for a good while. second...this is better than many that i have seen in the gallery, the last month or so. here's a free vowel, guys....we now have a lot of newbies, here. and, many of us who have been here for a long time, have wandered off due to the changes in the site. this person gets my hands down applause...why? for jumping in and "playing"; for having a unique concept, and, trying to convey it; AND, for having the guts to bring his/her questions into forum. An unasked question is the worst of all. Tips....go to happyworldland...you can find a link to it by going to the web ring top 15 list on the right side of your screen. they have some reasonably cool textures for possette. also DO A SEARCH IN THIS FORUM FOR STAALE...not sure if i spelled it right. He has some awesome possette textures. To me...that is the biggest problem with your render. YOu just need a better texture. Also, the advice on symmetry is good. And, play with your lighting. (Or download some of the poser freebies that come with lighting sets.) She is too dark in the front, there. try and light up her face a little. happy posing. Pop...Pop...Poppi!!!
