"In the end its those who use poser for various different things who drive the innovations."

That may be true for other people, but not for me. If there was not a single one of you Poser users, I'd still be interested in doing shaders. 

Puzzling out how to make a certain shader is like a Sudoku puzzle. When I solve a good Sudoku, the sense of accomplishment is in no way diminished by the fact that not another soul is going to admire, find use for, or even comment on my solution. To me, if you find my shader solutions useful, that's kind of amusing. It's like you're digging through my trash and pulling out my finished Sudokus and framing them or something. :biggrin:

I also compose, arrange, perform, and record music that nobody - not a single person besides me - has ever heard. I suppose somebody might find the music useful or pleasant to listen to but that's not why I do it.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
