What does it mean?

Question

What does "Poser" mean? I have heard it a lot before. I don't really mean a person who poses. I think it means something else. Thanks a lot.

Answer 1

A person that acts like a diffrent person but thats not how they really are

Answer 2

Not a person? What about this,is THIS what you mean?
Poser is a 3D rendering software package for the posing, animating, and rendering of 3D polymesh human and animal figures. Akin to a virtual photography studio, the user can load actors, props, lighting, and cameras for still and animated renderings.
Natively using a subset of the Alias object (OBJ) file format and a text-based markup for content-files, Poser comes with a basic library of human, animal, and robotic and cartoon figures.
Poser also includes poses, hair pieces, props, textures, hand gestures and facial expressions. As Poser does not allow for original modelling of objects, a large community market of merchants and artists creating, selling, and marketing third-party Poser content has flourished.

Answer 3

1: a person who habitually pretends to be something he is not [syn: poseur] 2: a person who poses for a photographer or painter or sculptor; "the president didn't have time to be a model so the artist worked from photos" [syn: model] 3: a particularly difficult or baffling question or problem [syn: stumper, toughie, sticker]
