Hey folks

I was just wondering - I am totally new to making poses/animations - I have a copy of Poser 5, can get Poser 6 or any software pretty much from work -

Is there a good, simple tutorial for making poses on the net or these forums anywhere?

Also, if any experienced pose makers fancy some one one one tuition, I'm an expert in photoshop and if you teach me, I'll teach you! Skill trade : The only fair form of currency...

Anyway thanks for reading, hope to hear from you.

Feel free to IM me in game, Apollo Korvin

Bye!
