Well, maybe this has been discussed a billion times but did you guys think about the "newbies" that I lurking just to try and get some more info!! And help?? :) I lurked here for a longg time and it really helped!! So for what it's worth, I agree with Tom - the end result is what matters. It very much depends on what you are trying to achieve. There are plenty of Poser and 3D purists who don't want to do any postwork at all and that's cool because it suits the kind of image they are trying to achieve. Then there's the 2D'ers who just need a little bit of "human form" added to their images and consequently are usually post worked to death. And I also think there are the "in betweenies". Those that want to do 3D but don't like the final render. They may need to repair joints or add shadows or just very subtle fixes. It's up to you!! :) Just my thoughts on the subject!! ~Di
