That I believe was the actual intent Daz had for the brows.. for content providers to supply them NOT on the textures themselves, but node based, and on separate maps.

My guess (and this is JUST a guess) is that Daz swa the P7 Monday download thing, and were worried that Syndey's free inclsion might dampen V4's launch, so they jumped the shark and kicked her out the door without double checking everything.

Great example: While there is a large number of V4 release items, how many are actual Participating Artist releases? ONE. You don't think PAs have been working like crazy to create items for V4?

I'd say before whipping yourself in a furor, wait until next friday, and then assess the V4 product availability and issue/option thing.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
