I feel bad about posting publicly, but quite frankly, it may be a good idea. If the RIM were to hypothetically interview key people at CL and Shade, what questions would you want answered?

1. How do we get our hands on FeiFei. 2. How long do we have to wait for obj. import.

1. When will Shade be available in Europe? 4. What will the price be in Europe?

1. How is Poser 6 coming along?

Are Shade sales meeting expectations? Will Poser ever be able to write MAT files? Will Poser's user interface become more customizable?

Are there any plans to adapt P5 materials to shade materials or vice-versa? Will figure posing be possible in the next version of shade?

Will we be able to export shade's rigging into poser? and posers rigging to shade?

(1) Same question as Ronstuff about Poser5+ and Shade sharing materials

Kewl, keep 'em coming. And thanks for the help.

3rd party plugins available at CL? What about commercial plugins? Will Calipso (Shade 7 Pro render plugin) be available for purchase for Standard users ever? OBJ Import, when? Is there any remote possibility of Poser 5 material node import into Shade 7 via PoserFusion? How about poser 5 dynamic hair? what about when Poser 6 comes out any plans that way? Is CL working with anybody or any publishers to get books on Shade out there? With the release of Shade CL did a great job on the manual and put out a pretty rock solid application right out of the gate. What difference is CL going to take for Poser 6? better and uptodate Poser manual without errors? Does CL have a plan to sell brokered poser products in the future or to open a poser "store"? Any chance of CL being nice and giving me a copy of Shade 7 Pro for free in my stocking at xmas? I've been good I swear (okay least I tried to be good).
