Once again thanks.

Got the new Daz Bryce Poser Import plug in and tested it against Grouper. Results....save your money and go with Grouper (and its free). The Daz plug-in does not place the textures on the poser models correctly and caused numerous crashes with my Bryce. Maybe it works better in Daz Studio than it does in Poser. For my money,,,,Grouper is the best for now.

AS, tried both of those links and still showing a deadlink. Is there is something eles similer to grouper? NHRN

Since I did not enter the R'osity Halloween contest this hopefully will not sound like rant or whinning but I agree with the problem that's occuring more and more frequently in the contest when they are left up to community voting. The problem of "trolling" for votes has gotten really out of hand. I have seen time after time where superior images have been passed over for some not so good ones. Let's get real here, because I am not the only one that has noticed this happening. What ever happen to voting for the most creative (that one image that stands out from all the rest)? This problem is really beginning to turn a lot of emerging artist off to entering anything any more and thats the sad thing, because their talent may never be seen. And the Poser Hot 20..well thats another story in itself. I think that the solution lies in making all contest entries anonymous. Granted, it will not be the cure all to the problem, but it could help in "leveling" the playing field. Anyway for what it's worth, thats my 2 cents.

I have never made it into the Hot 20 (and probably never will) even though like an idiot I keep thinking maybe one day I will. I have create some images that I worked days on trying to push my creative envelop and not gotten hardly any comments on and that was very depressing. Other images that I just threw together in a matter of minutes that I really didn't think was that great got comments out the yazoo. The point is, just do your art and don't get discouraged. People will either like it or not, but bottom line,,,its YOUR art. Some say maybe there is a clique, maybe not,,,who cares.,,,as long as you feel you created something very meaningful and personal to you,,,thats all that matters. Any way thats my 2 cents for what its worth.

Sorry for taking so long to get back with all of you about the challenge (been working in the ER the last 6 days). To clear things up a bit, a photograph needs to be imported into Poser then create your image. Any photo can be used except for using cyclorama (that would be cheating a little..LOL). Use a 2D photo that you really like an let it be your background. Postwork can be done in Photoshop, Painter, Dogwaffle, etc. Keep in mind that during your creation of your image, it all has to be done in Poser. The challenge this month is one that is both artistic and technical. Artistic because you have freedom to create any mood within the theme of a summer activity and technical because you really have to work at blending a 2D picture with poser to make seamless image. Hope this clears things up a bit. Good look to all!!!

No offence taken lesbently and thank you for your honesty. I am still learning the basics and I realize it is going to take time. Thats why learning from the pros is so important. I would never post anything in the freebie section unless its as close to perfect as I can get it and something that can be used by everyone.

Thanks for the tip. To create say a pose set for others to use, would I just copy the new pose file and do small screen shots at thumbnails? I am thinking about doing some sets and putting them as freebies.

First off, thanks to all of you that thought my entry had some merit. Congrats to romancework and FairyRaptor on a job well done. To all the other entries, you all are winners in my book. I have submitted the theme for next month and just have to wait and see if its approved. We should know some thing soon. Pedro (NightHawkRN)
