Just looking for a simple parking meter freestuff preferably :o) Checked the freestuff here and 3dcafe with no luck. Hoping I won't have to model one myself. Why re-invent the wheel right? lol Regards, mithrandir2K

Hmmm, I seem to remember one somewhere, but it seems to me that this would be a quick and easy one to make - a good beginner model. Consider it a learning oportunity if you've never made a model. It's easy. Slap a few primatives together (say a flattened sphere for the top of the meter- a box for the bottom, and a stretched cylinder for the pole), parent them, export the group as an obj, UVmap it, texture to your liking (the manual explains how to do all this in poser)...make a transmap for the window. If you have a photo it would be good starting place. ... If you need to see a moving flag.. use separate prop and parent it to the meter (inside) and just move it up into the transmapped window when desired. If I was at home I could probably knock one out in half an hour or so. ;) Best of luck whatever you do.
