Well PAGZone couldn't have covered it a whole lot better than what I was thinking when I read your questions. Bottom line is this. Poseable characters = Bones Bones = CS2.0 Therefore, upgrade. And to re-emphasize, I'll go out on a limb a teensy bit on this one but I don't think there's ANYTHING in CS1.1 that you learn that won't be in CS2.0. While we're fussing around with all the new stuff, ALL the old stuff is there (VERY COOL!). There will be a patch if you need it eventually. Eovia fixed a whole TON of bugs in the Metacreations version so they ARE capable of doing that and while the bugs are annoying, they are tolerable (so far). You're going to want to upgrade eventually. Might as well do it now. I really can't think of a decent reason why you wouldn't want to. Price might be a reason but I have no way to guess how long you'd have to wait to get a better deal. -Kix
