Well, this is not the sort of news I wanted to hear. We need competition. We need outside developers. We need the creativity spurred by the people trying to make something better than a given standard. What we don't need is another bloated injected, ejected, reflected, imperfected heap of polygons. Investers are often told "don't fight the trend" but that isn't the way an artist works. If you are trying to be a business person as well as an artist, sometimes you just have to give in to market pressure. But then everybody loses. It sounds like you needed a texture artist with a bit more courage, and self-assurance, too. I am very sorry, Anton, so sorry to hear this. {hugs} Carolly
