It's worth more. Think about it.... The program supports a number of different figures, with more being added all of the time. I'm sure that as a poser user your runtimes are bursting with items, such as hair, clothing and props that fit one character, but not another. And that you have some figures that have way more clothing than another figure. With WW, provided the figures are supported in the program, you can convert one figure's clothing to fit another figure with super great ease. Just the click of a few buttons and the script does all the rest. I've tried "The Tailor" and while it was ok, it was cumbersome because you had to go through a whole process for each item you wanted to "adjust", and then which morphs to add was anyone's guess. With WW, all the guess work is taken out. Dress the figure in the entire outfit and then go and do the analysis on each item it's wearing. No need to have to pick and choose body morphs. In addition to that, the product support is fantastic. A one time purchase of WW gives you unlimited outfits for your figures (if they are supported by WW), because all your figures can now share one wardrobe. Not only that, but there is no need to save each piece of converted clothing to the library folder because WW saves a data file with the analysis, which is very much smaller than the Poser files, so you save on hard drive space too. Once you've analyzed the clothing, you don't have to do it again because of that teensy .dat file that is saved. The next time you want to fit that item of clothing to another figure, even if it's the same figure with morphs added to it, all you have to do is put the clothing on the figure you want it to fit, and press one button in order to convert it to fit that figure. Not having to analyze each time, means that if you have the clothing item, you can use other people's analysis files and just own the clothing and not have to own the original figure. The only time you have to own the original figure is if you want to analyze the clothing yourself, then you need the figure and the clothing to do that. But to fit analyzed clothing to a figure, you only need to own the clothing, the new figure you want it to fit to, and have the required .dat file. So if you have a bunch of P4 women clothing, but no P4 woman, if someone has analyzed those items of clothing that you have, just copy their .dat file to the WW, put the clothing on V3 or whatever figure you want, and click "convert to" and it will fit that clothing to the new figure. It seems like a lot of money, but for all that it does, and the amount of money it will ultimately save you, it's well worth the purchase. My library is bursting over with clothing for V3 and V1/V2, but now thanks to WW I can fit all of those clothing items to SP3, Millennium Girls, V3 or even M3 and D3 if I want to. Poser files are NOT cheap and it all adds up rather quickly. Unless you are shopping at DAZ and getting the $1.99 platinum club price (don't forget to factor in the cost of the membership), most clothing costs $5.00 or more, and some very much more like up to $20 or more depending on where you shop. WW allows you so much more versatility with the clothing that you do have. It's late, and I haven't slept yet, so I hope all that made sense.
