I got Poser 4 because everybody that talks about it at Renderosity says how powerful, amazing and clever it is. I just realized that I'm on the wrong planet.
Nobody told me how unbelievably involved the program is! Every sort of help that I try to get, uses language that is over my head. I know that I have to learn how to use Poser, but it's beyond my present learning.

I downloaded the Tailor 1.03 Demo, but had to delete it because it didn't let me conform already morphed body part.
I downloaded PInstall 1.3.4, but deleted it because it did not properly install any of the free clothing downloads I got form Renderosity.
I have Ron Knight's Tailor 1.1, P4 & Beginners tutorials.
I have Bloodsong's 'Painlessly Easy Conforming Clothing' tutorial, found at www.3dmenagerie.com/goodies/tut/conform.htm.
I have the 'Conforming Clothing Figures' tutorial from www.nerd3d.com/Tutorial/ConformingPrint.htm.
I have the 'Easy Conforming Fifures' tutorial from digilander.iol.it/piergemin/Easy_conforming_clothes.htm.
I have Morph-Manager 4.0, but it's too complex to use.

I bought Poser for the simple task of illustrating my unpublished manuscripts for possible publication as e-books. But the necessary poses that I visualize in my mind cannot be created with Poser. I have found many of the correct clothing (both translucent and transparent), hair (styles and lengths), and even went as far as order several things from the Marketplace. Unfortunately, I cannot create the illustrations that I need. I can morph a P4NudeFemale into the beautiful character that I need, but posing the character and clothing the finished female is impossible for me.

For example, I had to hand install Dark Whisper's Short Top into each correct subdirectory. When I ran Poser and tried to use the Short Top, my 512Meg 500MHz PIII notebook computer told me that I was out of memory! "Nonsense!" I yelled. The only way I can use clothing is to use only the default library clothing. (Which is horribly limited.)

So far, Poser 4 is just a toy to me, unable to do what I need it to do. I don't know if there is a 3D, or even a 2D, character generator program out there with the vast predefined library of attributes, bodies, clothes, props and extras, like Poser 4 has. If there is, then I'd better look long and hard for it.
