Quote - I'm a vendor and I have five small questions that will help me when planning new products:
- What products would you like to see in the marketplace?
- What products are you tired of seeing?
- Where do you start browsing for products?
- What to you value the most in a product?
- What bothers you the most when trying a product you just bought?
thanks a lot for your opinion

- I would like to see more historical male clothing, especially for G2, Kyoji 1 and Apollo. I would also like to see some motion capture sets - there haven't been any new ones on Renderosity in ages. 2) I'm tired of seeing yet another sci-fi or fantasy clothing set for vicky that just makes her look like a slut. 3) I check Renderosity for new products most days - Daz and Content Paradise every 2 or 3 days - Runtime DNA and Poser Pros less so (every couple of weeks or so). I used to check RDNA and PP more often, but RDNA has hardly turned out ANYTHING for male figures since they ditched Apollo almost a year ago (they stopped supporting M3 in a major way long before that). And Poser Pros has never been the same since all the big merchants left. If I'm in the market for sci-fi clothing, I'll stop by xurge3d.com, and if I'm in the market for sci-fi/fantasy settings I'll stop by andi3d.com. 4) Things that I value most in a product are attention to detail (I don't like sloppy seam lines, or poses that remove morphs), good textures (that really sets a product apart for me) and an indication of how the product can be used (e.g. an ad for a texture set should have at least one pic of one of the textures used on an object). Clothing should have support for basic morphs (e.g. for M3 we should have Muscular 1-3, Heavy, Young, etc.). Motion capture sets should ideally keep the character in one location (i.e. not be linear), but that's just a personal preference for how I use motion capture sets. 5) Things I hate in products (other than those outline above in answer 4): pose folders that begin with !!!!! (or 'am I at the top now?'); generically named readme files (e.g. readme.txt) that I have to rename in order to keep in my poser folder; folder names that don't match the product name (it makes the pose or prop folders difficult to find in the runtime - same goes for texture folders, actually).
