"Which is why they've invested in all the expensive tech, I would imagine. Throwing some of it out to the hobbyist Poser market's likely just a spin off."

Not throwing some of it out at the hobbyist. Making the hobbyist pay for thier shinny new tech.

I like what the new morphs add, but these textures, I'm finding are pretty flawed for the amount of Bragging and Hype Daz and minions are claiming. I have been watching the Daz threads and I'm seeing images posted that people are creaming thier jeans over and I'm not seeing anything that I can't get from a Rhannion or Orion and some others in high rez quality. Is it the artist's, the shaders, the app or combination of all three mixed with the lost art of doing things yourself and not looking for that all in one, elusive, "Make Realism Art Button"

So for the hobbyist, it really is a waste of money to them. The textures I'm talking about as I said I like the Morphs. But Daz can poop on a stick and people will come out in Groves to buy it. That's just the way it is. And yes I did buy too but I'm on the verge of returning it all and just get the morph. Let someone else pay for that shinny new tech.
