hey anxcon... there's also the time one spends with Poser... my wife traded me in for a 21 year old! Her loss, she'll have to live without seeing yet another Vicky in a temple with a sword pic!!!

Z-toon maybe? What exactly was the effect you saw? Did it look like the above pic? Or was it cartoony? Cel Shaded? Or just black & white?

the link if you're lazy or weary from hunting it down (I am & I bought it years ago!) with the new layout of CL's webstore!!

ENjoy!! I recently reinstalled ProPack to render in Max (IT looks great!) but I'm back to P5!! ProPack is still usefull though!

Go for it zippy!! All the cool kids are doing it!! Come on!! Peer pressure!!! LOL!! Do it!! You'll like it!! I did!! I've managed to get a lot of praise for 1 pic and I managed to pick up a few pointers that I didn't think of!!! It's a win win situation!! Unless I post something that's utter $**T!! Heh... Must work harder!! LOL!

my bad! sorry steelrazer, thanks nickedshield!!

or you might need more keyframes in between the positions... if you just had your starting frame 0 as say: hands on hips, then moved timeline slider to 45 and moved the hands to the shoulders you'd probably end up with some funky stuff going on like the elbows poking into the chest or the arms bending too much etc. if that's the case then maybe try 10 frames move a little bit, keyframe, 10 frames move a little bit, keyframe, 10 frames move a little bit, keyframe, and so on!

Who here doesn't? If not for them we'd all be rendering Don & Judy, the 50something looking couple! I'm not dissing CLabs! Really! It's just Judy is so ugly! And Don's not really a looker himself but he's kinda ho-hum ya know? Daz makes me happy. Just like Curious Labs does. And just like Renderosity does. G

Yeah, sounds like me too... I have about 4gb of renders and animations from the last 5 years. The pic I posted was thrown together yesterday (Like an hour maybe) before I posted it. I had noticed Vali's Faith character in the FreeStuff a few weeks ago and it wasn't available. I saw it was in there yesterday and grabbed it and threw the pic together and SHAZAM! I became a man finally and posted a pic in the gallery!! Hence the lack of postwork etc. I still think I suck but perhaps having someone other than myself critique my stuff I may finally strive to improve. Thanks again all!!! btw... I've seen your gallery before FishNose... tres bien!!! Not really into fetish stuff but you certainly showcase two of my favorite things quite well! ROFL!!!

Are parts of your model poking through or are trans maps not positioned correctly? Or what? Maybe post a pic of what you mean... Visual aids are great! Thanks!! Later! G

I still consider myself a noob... I started using Poser 4 when it came out in what '99 or 2000? Then got ProPack when that came out. THEN Poser 5 about 2 weeks after it came out!! I was so happy for SR1!! LOL! This is a hobby for me, I'd love to be good enough for it to be a career because I absolutely love 3D CGI! And 2D traditional animation too! "Not into the art so much as the animation." Animation is art. Even little scribbly doodle fliptures on a jot pad or post-its! Thanks!! G

Thanks all!! I'm gonna head on over to the beginners gallery now!! I really appreciate all your replys and good advice!! G Even though I don't believe in luck, wish me luck please?

any gallery is intimidating... perhaps if there was a "Crap that looks like it was produced by rabid dyslexic hyenas" Gallery, I'd maybe feel some sort of comfort zone. It's weird, I'm A-OK posting up a pic here in the forum. The galleries Poser or otherwise is a different story. I've been lurking here in these parts for a long time and still! I have issues I guess! G Thanks for the input btw!!! :)

forgot to say save it as a png, character.png that is... I always do them at 347 x 260... with the character centered in the window it always centers it perfectly in the png and I have a nice big detailed thumbnail of all my models! Might be overkill but I like it!
