I haven't used Jessie on one render so far but I have used James. I use James a lot with V3. I don't agree with some of daz's themes I think they are just a tad childish at times but I must admit I have always been a daz person as far as characters are concerned.
In all honesty I was seriouly considering purchasing Miki until I read more about her and some of her issues and I really don't want to purchase a figure just to get a new and improved version if in fact it will be new and improved. I have never been one to jump on the band wagon when something new come out. I used poser 4 for a long time passing by P5 when it came out and here in the past 2 months I broke down and upgraded to P6 because of the fear that items for P4 would no longer be supported. I admit I wish I had stayed with P4 as a matter of fact I find myself using the P4 renderer much more. The firefly renderer is great for one major image but not when you do a set of scenes. I put together story boards and some of them contain over 100 images and I can't wait 7-10 hours for one image to be completed.
There is no quailty in a project when it is rushed dispite what the corporate world would have you believe. I see all this talk about wanting poser 7 that there are some that can't wait for poser 7. I can wait and I'd rather wait or else the same thing is going to happen with P7 as did P5 and 6 a rush job that lacks in quality. So M4/V4 have yet to come to pass a good thing in ny book.
Too many companies today are in a rush to release products because their customer base is too much into instant gratification and these companies don’t want to lose potential profits. However, in rushing inferior products to market ends up in the corporation losing more money in the end with rework, retesting, repackaging and trying to regain customer trust. It is shoddy workmanship and poor management that finds many a company in the red or bought out by a competitor.
Wal-mart = another spike in the shashaujian or "assassin's mace" for China.
