I got It : The sims character studio Sure they would sell a lot ! How comes curious labs didn't include a .skn export format for the sims, and animations too ?

pinup pro 3D is a great name !
What about 'pinup factory'
'lord of the rendering'
'Vicky and Judy on the planet of prehistoric monsters'
'Mike 3, the revenge of Don's groupies'

I use 6.0. I had 5.0 before and skipped 5.5. As I work mainly for the web it is enough and I am quite happy with the integration of imageready.
I don't think I'll upgrade to v7, since I can do well with my actual one, and I can't afford to spend 1000$ for every new version.
I'll upgrade when Adobe will put an integrated animator in photoshop. It is far too long to work on a mere animated banner with photoshop.
