Well Photoshop Elements 1 is a reduced version of Photoshop 6 and Elements 2 has some of the same features as Photoshop CS. So Elements uses some of the same filter's. Really both are essentially the same as full versions, except it has not as many features. If you want some filter's you can check out http://thepluginsite.com and actions, well you can get some at: http://market.renderosity.com/softgood.ez?ViewSoftgood=24160 ;) -LeFrog

Looking great. :)

I also agree about the platinum club. When you first join you get a ton of downloads that daz give you, and not to mention the platinum club items are only 1.99. Also i would suggest to first go with Victoria 2. She is still great and for someone new to poser she is easier to work with. -LeFrog

Well you are right, the cR2 cannot be distributed, Daz does not allow CR2's to be distributed for commercial work. So a morph pack is the way to go. I have not done anything with Victoria 3 yet, but V2 is fairly easy. If you need help i believe there exists various tutorials out there. I believe there may be one or two here at renderosity. -LeFrog http://www.dragonfrostgraphics.com

Well i myself have Bryce and Vue but i have not used Bryce much. Vue D'esprit is far better.

You may want to try out the demos of both Bryce and Vue before, then you can decide what feels best. But in my opinion, i have Bryce and off course it is capable of very nice sceneries and such but i think that you can achieve a higher degree of realism with Vue (which i also have). But then i don't think i ever gave bryce the chance. -LeFrog

Well i myself may not ever go to inDesign. I have Quark and have been using it over 3 years. (well when i needed to use it). InDesign is very easy to learn and has a Photoshop familiarity, but Quark is also very simple. Both programs are of course great. Well i also use Photoshop a great deal, but i would never use it for brochures or manuals, etc. Well designing the graphics is fine but the main layout and the text is best done in Quark or inDesign. Well maybe even that other one ... Pagemaker now i remember the name ;) -LeFrog
