Ascinct, In some places the wish lists are public (as here, where some kind people have indeed gifted me with Boris and Roxanne and a boat or two), at other sites they are holding areas. I like to drop things into the private wishlist when spotted... like an announcement in Product Showcase Forum... then make up my mind later when reviews come in or I can compare items. About the only site I shop at with no wishlist is RDNA, and I hope they someday set this up so that we have a larger holding area before we narrow it down to the shopping cart at checkout. The nice thing about shopping online is that we can compare. We can have more then one window open when looking at a character or texture. In the real world, price is related to quality and scarcity and other determinants. Not so here. That cashmere sweater worn by Vicky wasn't plucked from the belly hairs of Mongolian pixels high on a silicon outcrop. Basically, I decide if it is worth this price to me at this time for this purpose... which often involves how long would it take me to make it. So when looking at those high-end textures, think about getting a digital camera and spending a week or two or three blending close-ups and fixing seams (tedious) or letting someone else do it while you spend your time rendering a background or assembling a set for your story.
