First- That picture of the little kid with a cigarette and her middle finger out needs a good spanking from her parents. Oh, wait, that's a "fairy". That's right, I forgot- if the child has wings, then it's a fairy. As for "telling a story", that foreword by Steve Cooper (in the Poser 5 manual) had me on the floor in stiches. Imagine- poeple using Poser to "tell a story"! Priceless! Take a look at the galleries here and what you do see? Naked women (and "fairies") staring blankly into space for no other reason than to stand there blankly. Some "artists" (and I use the term very loosely) don't even bother with a background- "Here's a nude lady [because I have't figured out how to use the 'Conform' menu item] in a default pose with a default textures with the default hair. Look at me, I'm at artist!" And don't get me started on the "item of the day" pictures! It seems that when someone releases the next "item of the day", everyone and his brother has to make an image of it. For one example (of many): the DAZ gorilla. After it came out, picture after picture after picture used it! Geez, enough already! Use some imagination! But, there's the key word- "imagination". Not many people seem to have it. They have the tool to make incredible pictures, but we get naked women in a fantasy setting with a dragon. Ho-hum. Why do we even bother?
