3-D graphics can really spice up a document or important presentation, the problem is in finding just the one you need. Thankfully the 3D & Animate Graphic Effects Studio with 3DPlus 3 from those thoughtful folks at Serif is a versatile, easy-to-use, all-in-one solution to all your needs.Harnessing the power of this package is made easy through the user interface, which manages to be both intuitive and comprehensive, giving access to more than 700 ready-made models, as well as allowing for the creation of custom models for more specialised situations. Though not a fully fledged rendering package like Truespace 5 or 3D Studio Max, 3D & Animate does a sterling job of producing high-quality work through the kind of features you'd expect to find in products twice the price.
Using the included 3DPlus software, three dimensional text is a breeze to produce and can be textured with ease and rendered scenes can have individual lights and lighting effects applied. Short animated movies can be produced for output to AVI and later inclusion on CD presentations.
The second disk in this two CD set contains a wealth of ready-made models which can used as-is or modified to taste using the tools provided within the package proper.
Those looking for raytracing tools should look elsewhere to fulfil their needs, but for those looking for something to give presentations impact, design graphics for their homepage, or just to liven up personalised birthday cards or other greetings this represents superb value for money. --Chris Russell

Whether you're a 3-D novice or an experienced digital artist, Poser 5 makes it extraordinarily easy to create complete 3-D character stills and animations. Yet while this new edition definitely has advantages over previous versions, it is not without its glitches.Pay attention to the system requirements on install. This program needs room and power. With more than the recommended 256 MB of RAM, rendering seems a bit sluggish in spite of the new FireFly micropolygon-based rendering engine, though considering all Poser 5 does, immediate rendering of complex 3-D objects might be asking a bit much.
Working in Poser 5 is remarkably simple considering the capabilities of the software. The workspace is clean and easily customisable, with a majority of the tools accessible from floating palettes and windows. A collapsible library palette gives you fast access to all available content such as figures, poses, faces and expressions. Plus, there is an entire CD of additional content including sound files, props, textures, templates, samples and demos.
The interface is broken down into different rooms: Pose, Material, Face, Hair, Cloth, Setup and Content. The new Face Room lets you map any face onto a 3-D head using just front and side photos of someone's face. Use the Hair Room to grow actual 3-D hair for figures in just a few steps. Go to the Cloth Room and convert objects into fully-dynamic cloth with complete control of behaviour. A full, revised reference manual is included.
So many things are under your control, it's hard not to want to tweak every little detail. However, making an adjustment may cause the software to lock up and quit. At other times, it may complete the changes, but the document window blanks out, making it necessary to close and reopen the program to continue work.
Instability issues aside, Poser 5 is loaded with fun tools, content and utilities making an upgrade worthwhile for serious users. Ease of use makes it a good choice for beginners and hobbyists alike. --Joshua Goldman, Amazon.com
