Sanford, >>Having "most" of the features needed doesn't cut it in the marketplace.<< Oh really??!! If that was the case, NO program would ever be sold! 🙂 Come on, do painters only use one brush, mechanics only one wrench, page layout people only one program? 🙂 A friend of mine has Alias PowerAnimator, guess what, he uses photoshop to create textures, Premiere for editing the video (adding transitions), Cosa After Effects for alot of compositing AND, believe it or not, some of the special effects that you (and I <G>) wish were in A:M! His, and my, strategy is to do as little as possible in the 3D program and use blue screening and compositing as much as possible i.e. similar to cell animation techiniques, usually it's faster!
