Hi Steve, You all missed one. You can have her though. Perhaps it will help bring in more sales to Jim Burton, which would be a blessed outcome to all this mess. Suppose someone decides they REALLY need a nice French Maid render for their website and newsletter about Kinky French Maids. Sure, they would LOVE to adjust the pose, lighting, perspective, etc. However, when they add it all up, and discover it would cost $233.80 just to minimally achieve this goal, not to mention the learning curve involved, my belief is that they will settle for MY french maid render as is, and not quibble over pose, lighting, and perspective ;p 119.00 Poser Artist/Poser4 29.95 Stephanie 1 34.95 Stephanie Texture Maps (Hi Res) 29.95 French Maid by Jim Burton 19.95 San Francisco Hair by Jim Burton Total: 233.80 I think the quote from you below proves my point. {{{{{"Somebody that has never used Poser is not going to immediately go out and buy Victoria and another $50 worth of accessories just from seeing one colorful newsletter...." Steve Kondris}}}}} With all due respect for what you are saying further in the quote below, allow me to present to you that it may turn out to be just the opposite of what you are suggesting in this best case scenario and that the costs will outweigh the urge to get creative. {{{{{"By getting these people in the habit of using DAZ images, it's hoped that they will eventually find themselves wishing they could just modify the pose slightly, or adjust the perspective, or expression, etc." Steve Kondris}}}}} Also, we all already HAVE been reading about this First Hand. The link provided above took us directly to the "newsletter" that precipitated this crises. It is not a second hand rumor we are going on, not hearsay. It is us actually reading what was sent out to the Scream Design membership and making up our own minds.
