On the other side, your shaders are marvelous. If you would need some months for VSS, I'm sure I would miss your postings a lot, and I would miss a lot of things I would not like to miss.

Well, you know me. I won't ever stop making new shaders. But I've been very distracted by real work for months, so I haven't actually released any lately. Let me see, I have ready to go:

Plaster (unpainted, painted, peeling painted)
Metals (with gamma correction)
Glass (with gamma correction)
About 50 different kinds of tile
Mud splatter on skin
Glitter on skin
Water (with GC)

Sounds very good. My own tries of water on the floor in my last image weren't too successfull.

Yes, perfectly. Unfortunately, I'm not happy with the fact that it has to take over the Python component while it is running. You can't run any other scripts while it is active. I'm having some conversations with SM about this at the moment. 

Which does not sound as if you were ready for release before Posers next service release.

No. It's funny - a big part of my real work is helping companies figure out what to do for future releases, in what order, and when. Then I help them get the damn thing out the door fast. My company is called "Get It Done" for this reason. But I don't apply my own methodology to my hobby. Silly, isn't it.

No, actually it's kind of normal. I worked as a consultant too some years ago (I now work full time for one of my former customers). Very few of my people in my team followed the rules they made our customers follow. The main difference between a data backup consultant and a normal user is that the consultant does not complain when he lost data, because he know what he did wrong. 

I, of course, live all my professional wisdom in private things tooo..... ...no, really.... well, at least sometimes. :tongue2:

Totally - constantly futzing. If my name is on it, I can't let it go with anything still bothering me.

I thought so. But a whole lot of people don't care much about perfection as long as it looks shiny and gets most of the job done. Really. Just ask Microsoft.
