Description
GVDV's last upload gave me a lot to think about. Wasn't I on the same way? Didn't I upload crap just to upload something? Haven't I neglected my family and friends, especially my dogs, to do Poser crap? Didn't I spend a lot more money than I should for Poser stuff I then used only once if ever?
The answers were yes, yes, yes and yes!
As a result I made my own little Poser charter:
- Poser is my servant, not my master.
- I will never again buy anything for Poser without having slept one night over the purchase.
- I will never again upload anything just to upload something.
- I will never again upload an image without having slept over it and find it still worth uploading.
- I will never again make an image when I feel uninspired and have no idea.
- It's not the quantity of uploads that counts. Less is more.
Thank you for everything! We will meet again here!

I love her expression. I can only aspire to your charter--on the other hand, I don't buy things at yard sales now, I just download Poser junk;-)

Well this image is wonderfull. Love it. And believe me, we all or the most of us was going the same way like you. Poser is really a passion. But if you dont take care, it is going be to a obsession. Hope you will feel better soon. :)

Great image. You make some valid points, I will have to rethink some of my rendering habits.

Dear Michael, Poser is the media - not the message! And what the real message should be is "FUN." If you are having fun doing something, then it's worthwile - and if not - do something else. This is mostly a restatement of what you've said, but in one aspect I think goes a step further. Why are we here at Renderosity? We don't get paid for it like a job - we are here for our OWN entertainment. If what we do pleases ourselves, then we have have succeeded in our goal. NOTHING we do will please everyone here - and some things may not please anyone - but they should please you. This is a "hobby" for all of us and everyone approaches it differently. Everyone has different styles, different techniques, different subjects - do they stuff that you enjoy - do it when you feel like doing it - do it when it's fun to do! And if it's not fun, then do something else! That's just my two cents worth - but it is how I personally operate. I may go a week without posting anything - I may post three in a day - I just let it happen. Anyway - I hope you had fun doing this particular image. If you did - then it is a success regardless of what we say. And if you didn't get enjoyment out of doing it, then nothing we say can make that time you spent anymore fun. I like it a lot - and the fact that I like it might add to the fun, but it can never REPLACE the fun!!!! Very thought provoking post for all of us!!! Since I am running so late as always - let me add - I wish you the very Merriest of Christmases and the Happiest of Holidays!!! I hope you are having a wonderful time both with the festivities and with your art work here!!!! Peace and Love, Meredith
