"Incidentally, I notice that you have no artwork up here... a professional such as yourself should certainly have examples somewhere ..."

Spoken like a true ignorant, still artist. (Thanks for the added sarcasm to make your self-righteous and sharp-toothed comment more laughable.)

I use Poser almost exclusively for animation. As any serious animator here (I think there are around 12 of us altogether) will tell you, we ...

• A) Don't get to crank out 10's or hundreds of complete compositions like still artists do.
• B) There are no galleries here for animators.
• C) Bandwidth issues prevent many of us for showcasing our animations, and is the reason for "B" above.
• D) Rarely is there even contest for animation. When there is a contest they rarely give enough time for decent animations, utilizing a still contest's time factor.

For me personally, I HAVE posted links to animations here on R'Osity (do your homework), including one recently I did to create a large scale hologram. Do a search for HOLOGRAM ... you can't miss it. A LOT of the work I do using Poser is for the creation of holograms or Motion-Pix (lenticulars), and would not be of particular interest to people, even IF I could afford the bandwidth.

I also am the kind of artist who doesn't like to show even a portion of his work until it was complete, unless I feel I need help with something. (I'm the same way with the novels and scripts I write.) For animators, that could be months, years, etc. Ask Wolf, or any of the other 12.

Personally, I've been working on a mini-movie on a grand scale (voice talent, fully developed script, etc.) for over a two-years now in my spare (that's a laugh) time, and have not shown a single clip. Why? It's not a complete work (I'll spend a good 3-6 months on the sound composition and music alone) and I want people to be blown away when they see it, not digesting it in little baby-steps.

Can you imagine posting you're half-done stills in the gallery?? Give me a break please.
