Yes....I did get the feeling that you did NOT intend to come across in a "snobbish" manner. That is why I asked what you REALLY meant. Irrespective of the programme used, there will always be poor and outstanding works. As another poster has stated, I have seen poor quality from Max and Maya....Poser is just the same.

At the end of the day it all depends upon what you are trying to achieve with the software. If it is "fit for purpose", then it can be brilliant.

Unfortunately, many galleries and sites show Poser images based on the fantasy world. This is fine of course, but it can become a little boring. Poser has such potential for so many uses. I have used its animation features for educational purposes and that has a specific purpose. I will not be competing with Lord of the Rings or Turner!!!.......it serves this alternate purpose so well.

But...there are people who seem to be able to use Poser with great skill and I so admire them. This programme can be very under-rated and this is such a shame. I remember the days when I had to provide images for my students on gestetners and then get all covered with ink when I printed them out.

Perhaps we are just so spoilt these days cos we have such brilliant tools at our disposal.

I say Poser rocks and I thanks all those users who have inspired me!!!!

Cheers
