Mick, the staff at PoserPros is the same, and thus far, nothing has really changed for regular members. Some of the merchants had issues with DAZ' brokerage terms, as they're slightly less generous to the merchant, but even that didn't cause much of a stir in the regular forums. My point is that if you want to contact the staff about anything, I'm sure they'd be available to assist. Paul (Guarie) has helped me a couple of times recently, as pleasantly and efficiently as ever. I'm aware you're not fond of DAZ, but so far they've been rather "hands off" as far as any visible presence at PPros goes. I'm not sure I understood your post but it seems you're saying that the staff at DAZ and PoserPros don't listen. Will you be upgrading to Poser 6? I'm waiting a couple of weeks to assess early user feedback, but will almost certainly yield to the temptation soon. Be well, Dean
