Hm, I would say Victoria loads always a bit slow....:-(
I also let the main runtime free, but I always put the figures also in the Poser runtime. It seems that Poser recognize a bit faster what you are looking for.

But that is the probleme of Poser 7 to save the images with such a low quality. With Poser6 I can save in much better quality. A point why I still prefere Poser6 for closeup renders. 
I really wonder why I can set the resoluton to 300 or more, if I only can have 72 at the end? That´s nonsense, isn´t it?
I´m still not a fan of Poser7.

I bought clothes and texture for free Sara first. Than I had understood how DAZ-Shop works and Victoria 3 and Mike3 with head packs was the next step. Victoria was nude and so...... ;-)
Posette got clothes from Poserworld. Here in Reo I can´t remember what was the first thing. I only know that I bought some stuff from Petti (now PG Graphics) and hairs from SWAM along my first steps here.

Short question - is Kozaburo´s Homepage down? I can´t get this site since a few days. I´ve just tried it 2 or 3 days ago, and also now with your link the site timed out only.

First you have to use the hair (that doesn´t fit Miki figure) and then click the matching fit-mat

I also don´t get all ebots only a few at day from the gallery. No Yahoo - own domaine ;-)

I would say the blonde one is Sensual Hair by 3Dream  at DAZ.
The spirals arer certainly one of April´s hairstyles.

Go "KaiZ" on MP, she also has good hairs for Afro!!

I always enjoy your toons much Gorden!!
Most I´m only too lazy to write a few words to give you a feedback and thanks to you.
So Great Work!!!!!! ;-)

Hmm, I never had problemes with DAZ yet. Just true, the forums are for members talk only but there is a support-mail site for questions and help.
Poser7 stuff you can buy here at ReRo too ;-) There is no need for DAZ Producs as long you doesn´t want to use their figures.
As company DAZ has to close a account if someone asked for it. But you can open a new account if you feel the need. 
I guess when your account was canceled your purchase list has gotten down too. So you can´t order a CD now.

Dear Karen,
when I joyned this group I thought to be a member shows that someone can write critical words and can give me suggestions without to fear that I´ll run hysteric through the city. Also that I can do the same at other members. But now it seems that the critique group must write a critique to all other members? So that is not possible for me also not nescessary becourse another member has just wrote about a technical mistake.

I can remember when I posted my first few renders, I often read "there is no shadow" 20 x under my image, but nobody told me how to do a shadow ;-)
In our german render-forum a new artist asked why 50 viewers are writing the same "there is no shadow" becourse it would be enough to read it twice. The ansers have been: "If I don´t see a shadow I want to say it too, alike if 49 persons already have mentioned it". From my point of view this is childish and such things nerphes an artist only.
So I also don´t think that the whole critique group has to write "change the light on the left".

I also don´t want to make 3 re-posts of the same image as it is boring for me and certainly to all other viewers who are not in the critique group.
So I only try to make it better next images ;-)

Hi to all,
I think with the critique group it´s not so easy to handel as we thought in the beginning.
For myself, I only can write a usefull critique to a category of art which I can do by myself and where I have a better knowledge of higher level as the other artist seems to have. 
So by sample I never could write a real critique for Rutra as he does something totaly different to my works. But I can say if I like his images or if I think if the second version seems better as the first now.
Through the critique group I have meet a lot of artists with other focuses as I have and I´m really glad to know their works now I don´t want to miss their images. But I can´t write a meaningful bash to them.
"Rubens can´t write a good critique to Dali, and a stage designer isn´t a warfare photographer."

For me, I have just had a few real good reviewer from whom I really have learned. But I also had some reviewers who wrote something about their personal taste only, and that really doesn´t help.

From my point of view it would really better to create a special gallery for images for technical critiques. In this gallery we can post our works for which we are need some help and suggestions.

For dynamics hair I also can tell you that the hair by KaiZ looks great after rendering.
Also hair by hmann and 3dream looks very real. Hair by Ali often looks strange on the promo-thumbnails, but they are best with raytracing and Firefly.
Free hairstyles are best by Kozaburo ;-)

I always enjoy your funny images!! ;-)

Althought I own Poser 7 since it came out (x-mas present from my husband g), I´m still using Poser6. In the moment P6 is running without any problems and he has nearly the features as Poser7. I always render with Firefly, and from my point of view, I like it more that I can set my own preferences (texture size and so on). With Poser7 I can´t as so many things are just "ready" for the user. 
Poser 5 I only used for a very short time. I wasn´t happy with it at all becourse I wasn´t abel to change textures (manual) and so on at all. Using Poser6 I could vote between the Poser5 screen or one which is familar with Poser 4th. Since I can change textures without Inj-files again.
