Penguinisto, I took the time to read your DAZ post and followed it to the post on your site where I read the entire article. I'll admit that I found it funny, but for the most part it just came across as a slam at some folks trying to make some honest money. I didn't see any technical critique of individual products, but then again perhaps "New York crack whore" is your idea of a technical critique. The products you direct linked to, maybe they are bad, but we'll never know what's wrong with them in the review you gave. Maybe the merchant who made the "New York crack whore" just doesn't have what it takes to do stunning render, but the texture in the hands of a more skillful member my be quite beautiful. As for moaning about the fact that someone has tweaked colour in a single texture to come up with multiple textures, big deal! What's wrong with doing that? They took the time to do it and if you don't like it, don't buy it. But if there's nothing technically nothing wrong with it don't just take a shot at it. It just looks like you're jealous that you didn't do it first. Sometimes in product testing there does appear to be nothing whong with a product. It may be tested by a dozen people before it even gets tested here, and no one picks up a fault as simple as a thumbnail that doesn't appear for some reason. Then one day someone buys the product and on their machine this thumbnail is missing and there's no real reason for it. That's happened to me. Product passed testing, I had it tested by other members of various sites, it sells without a hitch for 6 months and then oneday I get an email about a missing thumbnail. To be honest, I don't even know how I fixed the problem for that user, because all I did was send them exactly the same file that was uploaded to the store, and this time there were no problems. Maybe just something in the extraction. I guess my point is this. Critique and honest technical review is fine, I welcome it as a merchant, but don't just take shots at people in an article, for what seems like nothing more than they gave being a merchant a go.
