I picked up my copy of Poser4 from dabs, I could'nt find a shop that sold it

Must admit I bought my copy on the internet, because I couldn't find it anywhere, and Steve our local pcworld looked at me as though I was strange or something when I asked for poser, but then it is in Fulham London.

The greatest part of wisdom is learning to develop  the ineffable genius of extracting the "neither here nor there" out of any situation...."

I bought Poser version 1 in an Egghead Software store in 1996. Since then, Egghead has gone out of business, and I can't remember the last time I've seen a copy of Poser in any store I've visited.

Try following the link I provided, you end up getting "Egghead Powered by Amazon.com." Here's a screenshot. Last I knew Egghead at least closed down all their stores in Florida, if not across the nation. I think Egghead was going to be an exclusively online store. Now Egghead really doesn't exist at all.

Go to this thread http://www.renderosity.com/messages.ez?Form.ShowMessage=483286 and make a note of the magazine freebie serial number. Then go to the attached link and get the mag upgrade to Poser4 for 85 plus VAT. Probably the cheapest way to get it. It's all online I'm afraid, I'd say it would be very rare to find poser in a shop these days.

ta very much guys, but what to do? do i buy p4 or wait an age for p5?


ronknights ( ) posted Sun, 30 June 2002 at 8:37 AM

"Hey Ron, just say "opps I was wrong" Can you do that Ron ? " Wrong about what? I don't recognize the word "opps," either.


raven ( ) posted Sun, 30 June 2002 at 8:43 AM

bikermouse, anytime. kumo, go for it, when 5 comes out, you'll be well practiced, plus there'll probably be an upgrade price from P4 to P5 too.



ronknights ( ) posted Sun, 30 June 2002 at 10:13 AM

Bikermouse, you're entitled to your own opinions, as wrong as they may be. I've posted nothing in this thread to merit those comments. But it is a free country. Oooh, and you don't scare me either. Message671422.jpg


ronknights ( ) posted Mon, 01 July 2002 at 6:08 AM

I've done or said nothing wrong in this thread.


ronknights ( ) posted Mon, 01 July 2002 at 8:02 AM

You are so wrong. The Egghead stores do not exist, at least in Florida. I have not seen any anywhere else either. And if you look at the screenshot I provided, you'll note Egghead is really Amazon.com. Look at the URL and the top of the page. So I'm not wrong, and your little rant is wasted.


ronknights ( ) posted Mon, 01 July 2002 at 10:01 PM

By the way, here is the chronology of Egghead. 1.) Their stores disappeared, at least in Florida. 2.) A couple years or so later they went Chapter 11. They held onto the site and basically said they were hoping to sell their name to another company. 3.) Now we have Egghead Powered by Amazon.com. Guess what? The site is part of amazon.com.


ronknights ( ) posted Tue, 02 July 2002 at 7:18 AM

Yah right. You blast me for being right about something, which was totally inappropriate, now you play mind games. Do you feel better now that you got your cheap thrills?! At least I've shown that you're being an ass here, rather than me.


ronknights ( ) posted Tue, 02 July 2002 at 10:25 AM

I was right, you accused me of being wrong, and pissed on me. Now I've shown you were wrong all along. To quote you: "why can't you say OOOPs?!" Now go bother someone else.


ronknights ( ) posted Tue, 02 July 2002 at 10:31 PM

I can't say oops I'm wrong when I was right. That's the point. By the way I get plenty of exerise at work. We work in a converted mill which is about 4 blocks long, and have to climb stairs every day.


ronknights ( ) posted Wed, 03 July 2002 at 7:40 AM

Listen, friend. I remain totally right on this issue. You decided to get a bug up your ass and get this whole thread off-track. You're too stubborn to admit your little tirade was baseless, and you continue to become more insulting. Do you honestly think your childish insults will convince anyone that you have any amount of maturity, insights or wisdom?! Eat my shorts, little man.


ronknights ( ) posted Wed, 03 July 2002 at 9:22 PM

Listen, Mr. Bikermouse. You create an issue that does not exist, and then you continue to harass me on it and you insult me concerning other issues, and are wrong. Then you run and hide and tell me not to talk to you or you'll run for help. Get Real. Leave me alone. Admit you're wrong.


Lemurtek ( ) posted Wed, 03 July 2002 at 9:45 PM

Wow, Kumo muat be so happy with the help you guys are giving him! Juat to put my 2 denarians in, I'd buy Poser 4 now. It sounds like P5 is at least several months away, and you can have a lot of fun and learn a lot in that time with P4. Plus I'm sure there will be an upgrade path, so your investment will not be wasted. Sorry I couldn't be more agitated and off topic, though. Regards- Lemurtek


ronknights ( ) posted Wed, 03 July 2002 at 11:14 PM

Thanks for bringing this back on topic. Here's my viewpoint: I already have Poser 4 and a boatload of stuff to go with it. I won't waste another dime on Poser stuff till Poser 5 arrives. However, if someone hasn't made the move to Poser 4 now, it might be a good idea. You'll have time to use a better version of Poser, and get an upgrade price. None of us knows what that upgrade price will be yet. **** "This message states My Not So Humble Opinion. Our opinions might differ, but I respect your opinion!"


ronknights ( ) posted Thu, 04 July 2002 at 7:30 AM

Let's see. I post a message stating my experience with Poser and Egghead software. Bikermouse proceeds to insult and harass me, then Bikermouse complains and threatens to report me to the moderators. Excuse me, but you have been reported for your gross misconduct and your threats.
