Joel,  ~ getting real for a moment ~...

Your arguement for keeping the thread open in here for what will eventually become a commercial product is pretty much exactly the reason they aren't allowed in here, to start with.

If I could come in here - the most popular forum on the site - and thus getting the maximum exposure possible to 'hype' my 'Next Big Thing' in the Poserverse, this forum will become nothing but an advertising tool.

Personally, I'd be posting a new Next Big Thing thread each time I had some idea for a new product that I wanted to make sure got maximum exposure (everyone else would too, so I'd have to, in order to keep on a level playing field).

There's nothing wrong with technical discussions about rigging and such (actually, they'd be more appropriate in the Poser Technical forum), but people don't come to this forum to be barraged by ads for comercial products and if you open those flood gates, you better get out your hip-boots.

The "Jane Lite" argument doesn't work for me either.  It's a dodge, that doesn't address the above issues.

These are all just my opinions, of course.  ~ shrug ~
