Do you? Why or why not?

I've been out of the digital art thing for a few years but the bug has bitten me again and so here I am. I dug out and reinstalled Poser 11 and have grabbed most of the content I purchased here and at DAZ. But I'm not interested in dropping any more cash in a hobby that I may or may not pursue for any length of time. After browsing the galleries, it feels rather oversaturated with Vicky and her derivatives. So I wondered if anybody still uses the basic figures that came with Poser or any of the older figures (including freebies). They still seem like they'd be useful, especially for nonrealistic renders but I haven't seen anything. Is there a reason for that other than everyone just wants the latest greatest thing?
