The Cricket Cage - Main
Description
The Cricket Cage is basically a site to display some of my Bryce (from Corel-scratch that, now Bryce belongs to DAZ3D) and Poser (from Curious Labs-scratch that, Poser's company is now e frontier) work. Both are 3D graphics programs and I've spent much of my time and energy the last few years helping others to understand and work with these programs through email, mailing lists, and online forums both official and unofficial. I've also been a beta tester for several of the programs and utilities I use. I taught classes on Bryce and Poser at LVS Online where I discovered I'm good at teaching but also I put so much into it that I totally burned out after two years.
Late in 2004 I switched to using DAZ Studio for my 3D work. It's a new program that functions like Poser but is easier to use, and coded from scratch to overcome the problems that Poser itself has---originally coded for an old Apple years and years ago with many modifications to the base code since.
Besides its resource-friendly ease-of-use, DAZ Studio is FREE. Yes, free. As of this writing it is almost out of Beta. But even upon its release it will still be FREE. The idea is simple. One needs 3D figures and other content to actually, you know, pose and render pictures. And the creator of DAZ Studio is in the Poser content business. (Yes, DAZ Studio is compatible with the vast majority of content that is made for Poser.) Don't worry, there's plenty of content that is free to get you started.
