To Helgard.....I only buy Poser specific items & 3ds/Obj/Shade/lwo. models now. Much more flexible & the quality is much better. When I first started out with Vue4, I bought Boo's addons & 2 plants directly from E-ON, everything else is all Poser etc items. I've also bought a couple Lightwave models(that were not Poser ready) so I can use them in Vue. I don't consider model cost a huge issue until they start getting TurboSquid ridiculous, then you can forget it. SO cheap is NOT always the best. Ditto Iloco on the above. I find it odd, E-ON opens a store, takes off on trip without even checking on the "health" of the site they just opened before toodling off. Hmmmm...after further thought maybe it's not odd ~eye roll~
