"win" usually refers to matters of chance... and I believe that you want "earn" which is a reward for skill. It takes skill to make a good texture. With all of the photo-realistic textures available now, users have high expectations. Seams must match. It must look good in various lights. It would perhaps also help if there was something unique about it if you were trying to sell the texture by itself. This doesn't mean loading the pack with 20 shades of lipstick! However makeup, tattoos, wrinkles, water drops, whatever, have been used to give various textures a bit of character. I've seen various bodypaints or seasonal or magical looks used as the "hook" to attract buyers. And, yes, I do have to move this to Product Showcase. Carolly Poser Coordinator
