That just shows how much this market is, "flavour of the month."

It didn't used to be this way.. but I think much of the blame lieds at daz's feet, When they launched the new store a year or so ago, they lost catagories, themes, and the search engine is far from accurate at times.

For instanmce, try to find all V4 shoes at daz.. you can;t, so you are left just trying various search combinations, or just sorting through thousands of products now.

This time 2years ago, I'd say 40% or more of my monthyly income was from my back catalog.

If people can't locate products though, you can;t sell them.
Excellent example I saw recently was people amazed at Nybras, daz's demon. They wanted to know where that "new" figure came from, and in theory, since he's a daz original mainstream figure, he and all his accessories should be simple to locate there, right?

Rendo isn't any better.. for every killer new product, there are 10 junk releases, burying the great stuff in a pile of crap. And CP's store is so slow, that browsing there is now one of the prime tortures in hell for poser users who pass on.
 

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