Effective today, Friday, November 14, 2003, Barry M. Holcomb, owner of the artwork of Michael G. Brooks (aka Sarge), is removing all products from the DAZ brokering program.

so what's up with that?

Why?

Oh, My........I am sorry to "read" this. I have your "Wildlife" pack one and was planning to purchase pack two, when I have the cash. I do hope you are leaving on good terms, and please let me know where your products can be purchased in the furture. Do take care and good luck to you in what-ever you do. I really love your textures, but I am a "WHIM" buyer, who knows just where to get things, but only buys them when I want them for a "particular" reason. genny

I can NOT go into details. Ask DAZ. It's there problem,, not mine. I tried to talk to them. and thats all i have to say. question them,, not me.

You can still buy them until Daz remove them,, bt you know how slow they are, get them while you can before they are goin,, and then it will be up for GRABS to any 3d site anywhere,

Actually, My whim told me to go buy the pack that I don't have, but when I went there, I could NOT find it? I don't know what happened between you and "Daz", but I don't think it is my "Place" to ask them what happened or "EVEN" you for what the Problem is/was. I am somebody, who loves using Poser, who loves all the products that come along for the characters of Poser, and simply put, I am One of those folks who buys things to use with the program and their characters, when I "What It" for a particular project I am doing, or something that I think I want to do in the near future. it is "NOT" my "Place" to "ASK" daz anything. If you want us to know the problem you had........then SAY IT! Why should we all go ask, Anything, when we don't even know what your problem with them is? Our protests, will mean NOTHING if there is No basis for it. Please don't misunderstand what I am saying, as...I am all for you..........but you have to let us Know, what we should be Protesting about? genny

Interesting.

i have the right to remain Silent!

I got an IM friend and Member here on Renderosity, and DID buy the "texture" pack from sargebear. I am happy, but I am still, wondering, what do you want us to do? genny

"i have the right to remain Silent!" yes you do...whatever...

i have the right to remain Silent! Miranda rights- June 16th 1966, Supreme Court ruling in the Miranda case All People Must be informed of their rights. do understand these laws? if not please, understand them, by the US Law.

Darn, where is that little "rolls-eyes" icon located??

log me off of this conversation. geez... good luck with your products..I surely won't buy any of them

I'd like to have that icon too, Caly... ;) Why attack people who are just curious? Nobody was trying to force you to say something, people just wondered what happened, which is only natural, given such an announcement without any background info. Obviously you're upset about something, but don't take it out on others.

I had to stop back again...this notice is posted in a lot of places...DAZ forum, etc... I guess we're just to say adios or something instead of wondering why the departure, its your business why you're leaving DAZ, not ours.... we just won't haver the opportunity to buy your stuff anymore. good luck

This reminds me of what's going on in the British media at the moment. There's a scandal going on but no-one is allowed to tell us what it's about or even who it involves, only that there's a scandal going on. If you wanted to keep it quiet you should've just removed your items from Daz & said nothing to anyone about it. Leave the cloak & dagger stuff to the press.

Looks like another one of those "I'm upset and I'm going to leave and take my with me" messages that are supposed to evoke some sort of outrage in the community where posted. If people are upset enough to leave a particular place, they should take a cue from Doc Legume...just pick up and leave without all the fanfare. Jeez!

DAZ just finished a calender contest and some people are really, really, REALLY upset that the voting isn't open to the community as a whole, but that DAZ is choosing the images they themselves feel will best showcase their products. The most reasonable argument advanced by this contingent is that some of them are professionals, too. But entering contests and even winning contests isn't the same as having an editorial eye. Most importantly, we have all seen what happens when the group chooses the winners. Anybody on an email list gets a hundred of their best buddies to sign up and vote for them. The guy with the prize is the guy with the clique behind him. I haven't read all the threads over at the DAZ forum, but that one caught my eye today with all of the pages of comments... and I suspect that this contest is what has Sargebear feeling ill-treated. Of course, it could be something to do with brokering percentages or availabilty of new models before release or such business deal... but in that case, we'd be hearing from several of their brokers, not just one.

Ask DAZ,,, not me.. in one of thier forums they just delete the OFFICIAL Notice.. Which was the advice My Corp. Lawyer gave me. Ummm????

Huh?

How totally bewildering!

I wonder what "You do not have access to Coordinator Administration" means? Anywho...

Quote - and so. ends The days of ours lives, until next week, folks, As the World Turns we return to our Dark Shadows. see? how nice i put that without defending anyone? it mean, well let by gones be by gones, so we or soe have had a bad week, we al do. [snip] anger is energy,, take it and create something.

everyone ... deep breath .. think calm thoughts

Breathing in...breathing out.....thinking of the beach, as I sit in Atlanta freezing my ass off....thinking who cares ;) LOL

Well, I'm not saying anything to anyone, but......

" Ask DAZ,,, not me.. in one of thier forums they just delete the OFFICIAL Notice.. Which was the advice My Corp. Lawyer gave me. Ummm????" Threads were moved to the appropriate forums. There is one still in the commons and one in the reverse normals. Others were deleted as spam. Daz was also notified of the threads. J.Greenlees Daz Forum Team

"i have the right to remain Silent!"

And yet you didn't.

He usually doesn't remain silent. Need to dig up the thread between him & Greybro at Poserpros sometime. Makes for interesting reading. I still want the 'eye-roll' graphic. :) That's what I miss in forums like this, the tiny graphic emoticons that can say so much.

I'm with you on that Caly - I often feel the need for a roll_eyes.gif myself.

I like the one of the little green guy laughing so hard he's crying, banging his fist on the ground. I guess that's the "ROFLMAO" emoticon. I also want to be able to insert a .wav of a snip of the "Dragnet" "dum-de-dum-dum" theme that plays every time you access a post where someone says "I have the right to remain silent." You know, you can't have a tabloid without a bit of razzle dazzle.

ROFLMAO....XO with the Dragnet theme...I'll be hearing that darn theme now the rest of the afternoon!!!!

I'd like one of a head hitting a brick wall, myself.

I guess it's no fun to pick on Curious Labs any more so now Daz is finally fair game. Yawn. -jjsemp

Ah, you mean this one? ;p

And this one?

I've also always liked this one too!

I say it was colonel mustard in the library with the rope ;) I did hear whispers about a contest that had the rules changed more than a few times ala coughAOMcough. My advice is to steer clear of official contests totally, They're rigged so often these days you could make a sailing ship out of them.

Showoff.:P

Ah, so THAT'S how you do it!

"I'd like one of a head hitting a brick wall, myself." Now, if I saw THAT one, I would have a convenient excuse to use this one: "...the little green guy laughing so hard he's crying, banging his fist on the ground. I guess that's the "ROFLMAO" emoticon"

how'd you do that???????? PLEEEEEASE??????

DOH...nevermind......same way I use them in Incredimail...DOH

Smell ----------?

HAHAHA got it

Did you say PIZZA?

It worked! How do you position the animated gifs?

My turn.
