Actually, I'm starting to feel sorry for you, Katherine. I feel a bit bad, putting you through so much with the IM's just to save $40. Thank you so much for all of your help so far. I meant to tell you this in the IM's but kept hitting the 2000 character limit, even though Word counted the IM as 1869 including all spaces. Thanks again!

I pre-ordered Poser5, and was never sorry that I did. I had few problems with the first release. I will pre-order Poser6 as well.

I wouldn't want to use the model in anything overtly sexy, because it wouldn't feel right." Most scholars agree that Mary gave birth to Jesus when she was between the age of thirteen and fourteen years old. If Jesus developed in the womb at the normal rate that a human embryo develops, then the Holy Ghost impregnated Mary when she was between twelve and thirteen years old. Since the Holy Ghost is one of the persons of God, that must make God a pedophile. I wonder if the Holy Ghost ever thought, "This just don't feel right!" Sometimes I wonder. As an example, read: http://www.newadvent.org/cathen/15464b.htm Personally, I like the way that she looks, and I don't think that she looks all that young. I would consider purchasing a Poser character with that look. I agree that the price is a bit high.

Poser 1. I also checked every week for the release. Then I pre-ordered. Still have those original Poser 1 floppies.

That's strange. I went there and poked around quite a bit and didn't get one pop-up or download message. What's up with that?

Very interesting! Well written. Thanks for sharing the link. On an off topic note, how do you get the text on that page to be so small. Even on my 21" monitor set at 1600 X 1200 resolution, or my 19" set at 1280 X 1024, the print is so small using IE that I had a hard time reading it. I tried going to the VIEW menu and picking TEXT SIZE then LARGER or LARGEST but it didn't change the size. (Do those menu items ever work, I never tried them before). I finally copied the text into Word so that I could read it. Just wondering. Thanks!

Excellent surgery! That will be most useful.

I do not know the answer to that, but from reading this forum I can guess that it is that hidden warez trap. You know, the one E-on puts in there to annoye those wares kiddies. Are you sure that you actually bought those plants?

Just kidding. I refuse to buy the plants because I have seen the problem pop up so many times and I always see that answer given here and at E-on's website. Because of that I will not take a chance and buy any vegies.

Hope someone else can help!

Wow! That's a new one! Usually they just tell you that the program you are trying to run, be it Vue or Vue Pro, crashes constantly because you are trying to run a pitated copy. I never heard of them actually telling someone the serial number has been pirated. Like in reality any programmer would actually code in buggy subroutines that would be called when the program suspects it is a bootleg copy. Planned bugs! Yeah right! And Micro$oft coded in all of those security leaks on purpose too. I know my paid copy of Vue seems as buggy as any program I own. I am almost certain that the 'buggy bootleg' story is just to try and get those that are using stolen copies to buy copies. I often wonder how a person with a pirated copy feels once they buy the program only to find out that it performs just as badly. Oh well. Sorry if I got OT.

I have to agree with everyone else. Windows XP is the first Microsoft OS to actually be as good as IBM's OS/2 was for stability. XP is the first Windows OS that I actually enjoy. Go to XP and you will not reqret it.

Another Athlon 64 vote here. The Intel P4 does not come close IMHO.

I should post more of my images there. It is nice to be in the top five for a thirty day period. The same image did get more comments and a higher rating than I thought it would here and at 3dCommune, but I made it for a contest at another site and it did not get one vote (except for mine). ;-)

Of course the quality of art at that site is no where near the quality of the art here!

Nice to see that you are OK! Was wondering where you went. Thanks for another great model.
