You make some excellent points. Better integration with the larger 3D community would be great. So would lower poly (with SDS) versions of the figures. In fact, what you are describing is just exactly what Curious Labs intended to do with Poser 5! And it says so in the introduction of the manual. Considering the feud between DAZ and CL, I see DAZ's 3rd generation figures as evidence of the fact that they have chosen NOT to go the route of Poser 5, but to rely on massive poly counts for detail and morphing control rather than to use more modern rendering techniques to achieve the same result. On the other hand, Morph Injection is a pretty good idea - just wish we could have it without all those extra polygons. Of course, all this is speculation until we actually see DAZ Studio, so its anybody's guess. I'll just add my voice to yours and say, "From your mouth to DAZ's ear"!
