From all the conversations with Daz that have taken place on this forum and others, I take it that there are no plans to move to a higher generation of Stephanie. That she was an interim jump--kind of Vickie 2 and a half. Though she seems a bit brittle in the joints for this, she is a step on the road to a unisex model which can be improved and from which both male and female figures can be made. I like Stephanie and find her angular face and body very useable, but she may be a dead-end. Only as far as improvements, I mean I'm still using V2 also, and will continue to use M2 after I get M3 cause Poser 5 can't take very many high mesh creatures in a render. Emily
