" Gabe, don't say impossible. As soon as you do you'll regret it. Yes it'd mean more work for a rip off artist But if it can be done by you it can be undone by someone else. It makes no sense to me why they'd rather rip than let their work stand on its own merits. Oh yeah, their own work doesn't have years of satisfied customers standing behind it. " well, by 'impossible' i mean in relation to the current system of distributing custom morphs. look at it this way: right now there is one person distributing mesh-level modified 'morphs' for V3 - Jim Burton. currently with a morph of the existing mesh, no matter how complex, all a thief has to do is inject it into V3 at any of millions of possible strengths and start disguising away with V3 morphs or magnets. (im not saying this wont be spotted, so noone get any ideas, hehe). but if i modified the mesh, it would have to be encoded, and the alterations to the mesh would be highly unique. someone could no longer 'inject' the morph into their own creation, and anything they did with it would also have to be distributed as a PCF-encoded object. since there are very few (read: 1) merchants currently distributing characters like this, you can bet your ass that if a new one released such a character i would be examining it under a microscope to see if they had used my material. just ask jim - how many copyright violations has he had with his SMV character? and that was pretty much the first non-daz 'morph' (im calling it a morph to simplify things here) of V3 on the market and is still around over 5 years later. "I can't wait to see how Aiko19 looks once you get done with her ;)" ack, you guys really need to stop making such a big deal out of this, hehe. i already have an Aiko morph ready (a la GND) for the past year, but daz isnt getting that one. i just need to figure out what to do with her head - there are so many different anime melon styles that i havent picked one yet to suit the body. i started working on the PP one this morning, and it will be a remorph of the Aiko body such as the one included in the aiko19 pack. the people at poserpros are doing the INJ and textures and such. i shouldnt be in the spotlight for that, its a case of the poserpros admins getting together and rectifying a situation for the customers. cheers, -gabriel
