Hey all - I joined Renderosity in 1999 when Poser 4 was new.  I stopped animating in 2009 with Poser 7 but I'm getting back into it as I just bought Poser 13.

Things have changed quite a bit and it's going to take some time to get reacclimated.  My first new animation is a Christmas scene showing toys from the 1950s-1960s.  Has anyone come across a "Rube Goldberg" type contraption as a 3D object, in their travels?  I think it would be a nice addition.

Good to be back,

Ulysses

I look forward to the animations you might share! =)

I seem to remember there were a few which might count as that, for Bryce, back in the day? You might also look on the Sketchup models site, as those got rather funky as well.

Thanks HartyBart and MollyFootman.  I found the contraption on Sketchup.  Also on Poser 13 I was bummed to see they deprecated the Face Room, I did some fun stuff with that back in the day.  But I no longer have a Mac with an OS old enough to run Poser 7.  Either way Poser 13 is pretty cool.
