Off topic be damned. This is so entertaining.

Whining, crying, the sky is falling, but the tos says, double standards, double standards, freedom of religion

Most entertaining illogic:

Xenophonz: Anyone with a bit of intelligence knows what's going on here.
Xenophonz: there are two agendas
Timefighter: Please stop quoting the TOS in regards to this image...IT DOES NOT APPLY!!!!
Timefighter: it was a "DEATH SENTENCE" periodNo one punished Christ It was the LAW!!
OReillyTX: Ive lost my faith in this community.

As a Buddhist I do not find it moving, however, it is a well done image.

Data: Would you please continue the petty bickering? I find it most intriguing.

eGradientBackground does not control the library background. I appreciate the help, but it's not exactly what i am looking for.

ok, that helps. but now i am left with the question... which widget is it?

not to toot my own horn, but i identified/diagnosed the yRotation issue and emailed DAZ.

They fixed it within 24hrs, updated the install and e-mailed me. I re-downloaded it from the same link in my account and it is straightened out.

As for the scale. I kinda hate to say this because of all the whining I'm sure will ensue but they don't seem to concerned about it and passed it off as the modeler using a different program.

Perhaps if a lot of people politely enquirer about the scale they will get a hint.

Katherine, I've thought of some more thing I think would be helpful. (especialy from a new-bee POV) Is there somewhere we can send suggestions. I'm sure you don't want us filling out the survey over and over :)

I wish other sites had such awesome customer service :)

Im not sure if this is exactly what your going for, but I had a situation where I had two figures just the way I wanted them relative to each other, but in the wrong rotation relative to the rest of the universe. I simply selected the hip of one and parented it to the hip of the other (disabled all IK) and rotated the parent hip. They moved together as one. If you enable IK your figures bodies will move but their appendages will try to stay where they are (or relative to their parent).

Actually I believe what you are looking for is properly called a lectern. Technically a podium is something you stand on such as a small stage or dais. Although, the word podium seems to be used to refer to a lectern quite often. I don't say this to try to be some sort of pretentious prick, but to point out another word to search for when looking for this model.... though little dragon seems to have made a very nice lectern. Note: there are two lecterns in the free stuff. One is misspelled lecturn the other is labeled podium. Having never seen charmed, I am not sure if they are what you are looking for.

Poser 5 (firefly rendering) has F-stop and focal distance. I haven't figured them out, but I know that bluring the background is what those settings are used for in photography.

wha's a matter ynsaen? you don't want a real challenge? LOL

...so maybe someone should get in there and win the contest challenge then suggest an "absolutely no postwork" theme.

Maybe everyone should submit two images. one with no postwork or use of other programs to see who can make the best image in poser and one with postwork, so we can enjoy the beauty of the image.

Thank you
