Can't believe it. The darn thing actually WORKS!! Ok, ok, so he's not all that buff, and he's a bit of an airhead, but what you expect for a gal's first ever poseable figure? Huh? Took me all of a day and a half to get him working with the Pro Pack (probably would have been faster but I had to keep switching between poser and the internet and running that darn tutorial until it got to where I was...gee, they couldn't make one I could just print out?). I am definitely impressed with this aspect. Now I just have to figure out what the rest of the stuff does. Kate

Kate, I love your sense of humor! You know, you're going to have to get the community working hard to create a special line of clothes for the ultra thin man!!! LOL Joey

Geeesh, and I thought that I had to go on a diet! Way cool though. Are you going to post it or him? Creepy could have some serious competion from this guy. butch

Well, yeah, I plan to post him once I finish tweaking a few things and make a sideways head morph for him (he kinda disappears if you turn him sidewise). And I was thinking about making a stickette for him to hang out with too. ;-) Kate P.S. Only reason I made this guy is I can't draw anything but stick figures and I thought it would be easier to have one already drawn. g

I know that feeling. I am fustrated cartoonist or artist. I can visualize great things, but when I start trying to put them on paper, I end up with stick figures and whomp size buildings. I have bought books and even took a couple of art classes and nothing helps. I have a block somewhere in my nervous system that is between my eye and my hand... That's why I like poser so much. I can actually create what I visualize for a change. Now if I could only figure Bryce 4 out... butch

Oh, if you manage to figure out Bryce 4, butch, let me know. I still haven't been able to do more than make a mountain in the middle of the screen. :) I'm sticking with Vue d'Esprit - at least that one I can actually make pictures in. ;)

chuckles: Well I have been able to do that and I made a lake. I really haven't spent as much time as I would like to on it. I seem always be drawn to poser no matter what I intend to do. There is always some character that is begging to be created or a scene that I just have to do. I did download the free copy of Amapi and that looks promising. the one thing about Bryce is that is just too much information on the screen. I have trouble keeping all the menus and tools straight as what is what and what does what to what....

probably would have been faster but I had to keep switching between poser and the internet and running that darn tutorial until it got to where I was That is why I like manuals on proper hard physical good old-fashioned paper.


Butch posted Mon, 19 February 2001 at 1:11 PM

I do too. I meant to tell Kate, that what I have done in the past is hook up my laptop to look at the manual online while using my desktop to do what ever it was that I was trying to do. At one point I had my laptop running the manual online, My desktop running the program and my other desktop online with the service department for the program.... talk about confusion!


KateTheShrew posted Mon, 19 February 2001 at 7:18 PM

Wow, you have a laptop? Now I'm jealous. :)


Butch posted Mon, 19 February 2001 at 7:26 PM

Altogether I actually have six computers or is seven. I have everything from an old radio shack tandy that you hooked up to a tv to my new gateway. I love computers and would have a housefull if I had the money. butch

Cool this almost makes me want to look at buying the pro pack more seriously. You could whip out the textures for your guy real quick too :) Congratulations!

I'm looking forward to see it in the free stuff, Kate. Will the genitals on/off switch work? g - wal
