Welcome again to Posetteforever, Whazizname. I am glad you enjoy being here.
<br />
<br />
I bet we both purcahsed Poser 5 at about the same time! I was planning to upgrade to Poser 5 some day. When the release of Poser 6 was announced, I discovered that it would not function on my computer so the time to upgrade to Poser 5 had come. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/wink.gif" alt="" />

I saw your new picture that you uploaded I like the dynamic posing and the setting.

I ran a google search on "posette" hoping to find something I've missed--and I did! I don't know how I missed this site before, as I thought I"ve seen everything in the Poser Universe this last year. I just joined this month, and look forward to being here. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" />
<br />
<br />
I got Poser 4 a long time ago but never did anything with it until I tried Daz Studio a year ago. I just got Poser 5 and then 6, and am trying to learn how to use them. I have learned to use Poser 4 (more or less) and like that the best; don't know why it was so hard for me to grok it before, except I'm an old duffer and a bit slow! I love playing with electronic dolls, and have just about every figure but the Poser 4 ones are still my favorites.
<br />
<br />
When I was a kid I played with GI Joes and wondered what the 21st Century might be like. Never thought I'd be playing with electronic dolls inside a computer! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

Do you run for exercise? Have you tried searching the Internet? Only just? Did you experience peer pressure? Only just? Interesting. . . I have bytes of RAM. Does everyone learn to use Poser 4 more or less and like that the best; do not know why it was so hard for him or her to grok it before except he or she is an old duffer and a bit slow? You love playing with electronic dolls and have just about every figure but the Poser 4 ones are still his or her favorites. What do you like about playing with electronic dolls and have just about every figure but the Poser 4 ones are still his or her favorites so much? That must have been quite an experience. Ok I'll try not to do thought he or she would be playing with electronic dolls inside a computer too much.

Well Tormie, you're right. Normally I'm not playing with dolls at all <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lol.gif" alt="" />
<br />
But I simply love playing with "The Doll" ( you know, who...) <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lmao.gif" alt="" />

How I came to find Posetteforever... easy.
<br />
<br />
Was just back on the net after a few year's absence and hunting for free hair meshes for Posy, Vicky and and the rest. (Nothing worse than a bald Vicky. It's bad enough she's cross-eyed in half the renders I've seen!) Initally started at Renderosity, because I remembered the sampler that came with 3D World magazine a LOOONG while back, and thought there might be a couple more freebies available.
<br />
<br />
Nearly dropped dead of shock when I found out HOW large the freebie scene had grown... So, still on dial-up, started snarfing everything I considered usable from 'rosity in a methodical 'start from oldest and work my way forward' method. (Only JUST finished a week ago, and that's with a month on broadband as well, mind you...!)
<br />
<br />
Along the way, ran into Mylochka's retro hair styles (love 'em!), and while at her site noticed a link saying her older stuff was here. Breezed in, registered, and snarfed 'em. While downloading (at this point still on dial-up) I started reading through the forums... and noticed very quickly that this was NOT your run-of-the-mill site. Once I started browsing the gallery (again, from earliest to newest), I was stunned, impressed and frankly a little over-awed. But I knew I had found a new home on the net.
<br />
<br />
I log on every day now out of habit. Can't help myself. Once I've finished raiding all the freebies I can find (and I've pretty much emptied out all the big sites now...) I want nothing more in life than to settle down into a comfy chair with my trusty PC and render my brains out...
<br />
<br />
... and post 'em here.
<br />
<br />
Tormie, you have made a wonderful, peaceful oasis for us... and I for one am very grateful for that. Thank you, sir.
<br />
<br />

Well I am very well versed in AutoCad and I am becoming pretty good at Max; so, of course, the next logical step is to learn how to populate my creations. I have been all over he77 for the last three days looking for a group that doesn't seem to be filled with egoists right from the jump. I don't have an attitude so I don't like to even have to read them. I found this place, fumbled around looking at some things, and decided I wanted to join. But I hope to learn how to do Poser through the friendships I hope to develop here.

Post subject: Re: How We Found And Came To Be At Posetteforever.
I came to find Posette Forever through a conflageration of events. I do not remember the exact chain of links I followed that lead me to this wonderful archive and forum, but I am glad I stumbled across it. I was looking for some older content for the Daz Generation 3 figures, specifically some really nice cybernetics I remember seeing once. I knew it was not on the main sites such as Daz, Renderosity, RDNA, or CP, so I have spent months trying to find the privately owned site it was on again with no luck. This search involves following chains of links from vendor and private sites for Poser and 3D content (many of those links now dead links at that). Often when on such a hunt, I will stumble across other websites with wonderful legacy content, and will end up bookmarking those as well. That is how I found this site. I still make use of Posette, and Dork, and other figures from the orriginal Poser 4 package. I am an advocate of legacy content for a large number of reasons - but in large part it is because of my background in 3D.
<br />
<br />
I have been doing 3D animations and work since the good old days of the Commodore Amiga 2000, and Lightwave 1.0. I followed it's development up until Commodore went bust in the 90's and a few years later, Newtek abandoned the Amiga platform all together. At the time I had already invested a substantial amount into an Amiga 4000 with the full Video Toaster Flyer just 2 years before - and had all my money tied up in paying off those loans - with nothing to purchase an IBM or software to even make it comperable to what I already had in my Amiga. So for the remainder of the 90's I plodded along animating at 60mghz, with polygon counts below 1000 as the PC platform caught up and surpassed my capabilities. Still deeply in debt I dropped out of 3D and animating around 1999/2000 when my faithful old Amiga developed issues. I finally acquired a few PCs, though still not fast enough to do quite what I wanted, and without the software - then I stumbled on Poser 4 at a friend's house in 2004 and saw a whole new possibility of animation. I picked up a legacy set of Poser 4 Pro Pack I found used, and a used copy of Lightwave 5.6 for the PC and set out trying to make new clips. I have a lot of clips I started back then on My celeron 833mghz that just never got finished because 512mb of memory just wasn't enough. It was not until late 2009 I made a serious and concerted effort to return to 3D in any serious fashion - devoting money to newer coftware and some refurbished computers to render on.
<br />
<br />
Because of all of these issues I still feel that 3D content is not really just about the polly count as much as how well those polly's are used. I feel that Posette and Dork can still be very useful for many simpler animated projects, or even cel-shaded style work, and are a lifesaver when creating large scenes where tens, or hundreds of background characters are needed. I am not as much of a fan of the newer Daz G4 figures, as they are complete resource hogs - and unescessarily at that (just one of them brings my quad core 6gb ram machine to a snail's pace). I still like to collect as much legacy material to make my older legacy Poser figures as versatile as possible, and regret not having funds or resources to acquire much of the now lost commercial content for such figures when it was available. For these reasons I find sites such as this a godsend.

Yours is a nice story, I never had enough money for an Amiga and I was still using a C< 64 (I bought a couple of new C< 64 a couple of years ago and I keep them in the garage <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" /> ) but I would have really liked to have one, it was a monster of a computer...
