I think I will agree with Allie. I just got sucked into a situation on the Poser ng that I now think MUST be from a warez user that dled the free Vicky bikini. He kept saying that he was using Win 2000 (but also had 98 on another computer and it didn't work on that either--after I pointed out no one was having problems that I knew of) and none of the clothing pak templates worked, I pointed out differences between templates/textures. THEN--he said all worked but the bikini texture and even posted a pic after I said that would help us to figure it out. I thought he was using the free and trying to apply pak template, so posted my texture and template for the pak along with texture pic. On and on--he wrote me several times (I obviously appeared to be a sucker) asking me to please send cr2 and rsr for bikini. Well, I'm not THAT dumb LOL--I said contact Doug or Chad at Zygote--then he wrote and said they had sent him the new pak and it still wouldn't work, please help him--and I said--look, if they don't work, then you have more problems than my sending you my cr2 and rsr would correct-can't do that--PERIOD. But--the point is, I got suckered by trying to be a nice guy. I think these warez users know exactly how to go about this by now--and look for the one in a hundred who feel sorry for them--he kept saying that he had the original geometry for Vicky--well, he got it on a warez site, I'm sure now--but doesn't have the clothing pak. OR--maybe he DOES have Vicky but doesn't have the clothing pak. Whatever--he was persistent and maybe someone else would send him what he wanted. So--my feeling is to answer nicely the first time just in case, but just say no, period. And--maybe the site should be cleared of any posts asking for software. Diane B
