So many senseless killings could have been prevented, if only Lara knew the dinosaur language…

If you are interested in more comics by me, you can find them at my homepage (http://ferroequinologist.de/en/comics), or in my Laracroft.TV fanart gallery (http://www.laracroft.tv/gallery/main.php?g2_itemId=400), or in some threads in this forum if you have the time to dig it up again.
But wait, there's more!
Announcing TR Poser
Every time I post one of these comics, people ask me how I do them. It's easy (well, actually, not): I have written my own program that allows me to pose any TR1-4 characters in any TR1-4 levels. Then I take screenshots of these scenes with Mac OS X's Grab Utility, and put everything together in Adobe Photoshop.
Every time I explain this, people ask me whether they can have that program. So I did some major cleanup and am releasing it for download. Beware: It only works on Macs. If you are not sure whether you have a Mac or not, you don't.
Download program: http://ferroequinologist.de/img/software/trposer/TR%20Poser.zip
Download source code (Open source, GPL): http://ferroequinologist.de/img/software/trposer/TR%20Poser%20Source.zip
Some notes about the program:
I did a lot of work to get it more useable, but it can and will still be a pain in your rear-end at various times. Be patient, and if you have a suggestion, tell me. Some experience with the Level Editor is not exactly required, but definitly helpful.
It has a lot of limitations that you will discover more or less as soon as you start. Listing them all would take too much space, but you can more or less assume that when something looks or works strange, there's really no way for you to make it better (unless you hack the source code, of course, which would be really cool). Use your favourite photo editing program to overcome them.
