I've got to agree, the lack of an OS-specific UI is a real disappointment, and is causing a lot of problems and driving up the system requirements. Did you notice that Poser has to parse through over 17 megs of Photoshop files every time it displays a screen? That can't happen too quickly. And 17 megs is their size on disk; they are bigger when read. Those PSD files even contain many many layers of images marked "oldunused". I understood the non-standard interface when the program was shipping with Mac and Windows versions on 1 CD, but I really thought we'd get more standard UIs this time since the versions were being developed separately and supposedly re-written from the ground up. Oh, well. I love P5. I hate P5. :) Phoenix
