Thanks. Looking for antiue x-mas ornaments this weekend reminds me of this thread in some ways. First off, you can never have everything that is out there. The desire to compusively collect everything Poser leads to many of those rediculous "grumpy" posts. I think it is better to find that genre that is your favorite and carefully collect those items you love. The store bought ornaments were not as fun as the ones I searched for. I found alot of crap at old markets nad antique stores. But it was finding the treasures that was the most fun. But I had to remember that even though they were dirt cheap they were old and once expensive. Sometimes I just wish we could do the Noah's Arch thing and drown most of the content. lol Kinda kidding. Seriously It was more fun when there were less things. then each new release was special. Nowadays new products are released and liquidated within 6 months. New stuff looks like old stuff. :( Now that the community is finally verging upon it's either final death or eventual rebirth things will hopefully be reborn more interesting. Either way this 5th era of the Poser community is almost completely over. What everyone is seeing is desperation over what no broker wants to either believe or talk about...the Poser well is amost dry. They are just desperate for products to sell. Constant sales is never the sign of a thriving market. Regards, Anton ps: there will always be freebies. There are just as many now as there have always been. they are just spilt up among more sites.
