As a newcomer to Vue I'm looking for some advice from the more experienced users. My question is twofold:
1. I had bought Vue 5 Easel when it first came out but didn't have the time in the past year to really sit down and do anything with it. Now, I have two possibilities - a) upgrade to Vue 6 Infinite or b) upgrade to Vue 6 Easel. The first option will cost me EUR 463.99 while the second will cost less than EUR 23.00 ! Upon looking at the features list for Vue 6 Easel
http://www.e-onsoftware.com/products/vue/vue_6_easel/?page=6 I can say I was impressed but, as stated above, my experience in Vue is next to nothing so I'm not sure I may be getting the full picture here. Basically what I need to know is what will I be missing if I don't go for Vue 6 Infinite and how much will I need it at this stage (beginner)?
2. As for SkinVue I'd like to know if SkinVue 6 can work in Vue 6 Easel.
Thank you in advance for your help!

Kalypso, I recommend you check the comparison chart at e-on for an in-depth picture of the differences between Vue 6 Infinite and Vue 6 Easel.

And SkinVue 6 won't work in Vue 6 Easel. It requires Python library which Easel doesn't have. It's Vue 6 Infinite only.

Thank you Djeser, that was very helpful, I had a good look through it and decided since I'm still a beginner I'd probably be overwhelmed with Infinte so I'm going for Easel :) The decidiing factor was that it will import Poser 6 shader nodes so that makes up for not being able to use SkinVue.
Time to scour the forum now newbie questions!
Thanks again
