Hello. This is Talwicca and this thread is about me and one of my products. I feel I need to clear a few things up. Bob is one of my sponsors, he buys all my products and so has a vested interest in my work. What he has posted was done because he is my sponsor and was sticking up for me, which is fine with me. I am selling Timba elsewhere so I do not care that she has been rejected, although I do think that they could have given me a better reason than they did. The market is continuing to receive V4 characters on a daily basis so saying that they are saturated with V4 characters is not a good reason. It does not help me know what to create or what they feel will sell at all, and isnt that what we venders need to know? Over half a dozen of my testers and product users have used Timba in their work and have found her a very buyable product.

I respect Bob's view on the policies being a bit biased, and when he told me that he was going to post in the forums I agreed that he could discuss the product. I do not want the name of the product or my vender name withheld like I am afraid and hiding. I think Timba is a great character so I am not ashamed to let people know of which product we speak. I am not hurt or angry about the rejection but I am disappointed that they could not come up with a better answer or reason as to why she was rejected. Was there an errors? I do not think so because I have several testers who helped me fix any that were found and I will tell you one of my testers is fantastic when it comes to finding problems, also she was accepted by another store quickly.In fact I think all my friends were more effected by the rejection than I was.

I hope that if anything, this forum posting will maybe urge Renderosity to give a more detailed and helpful reply in the case of rejections So that vendors will perhaps know what products are needed and not waste their time on trying to make ones that are not currently needed in the marketplace. Timba is not a high end model for which I would have to charge a high price, but she is as good as any other V4 character that is in the price range targeting buyers who cant afford 20$ characters in these financially shaky times. There aren't enough characters in that category as there is, in my honest opinion. One thing was said that I will correct personally, Someone said that my resource list was almost as long as the file list for Timba. That was an oversight on my account. I keep a template readme.txt listing all of my resources so that I do not have to look the names up every time, I take out the ones not used when making the final readme.txt. I missed that step. But that does not make Timba a bad product. We are all human, aren't we?

Also I would like to say that there were several extremely derogative remarks aimed directly at Bob and at myself in my absence, that only shows the intelligence and level of manners of the people that said them and I think we all know who those persons were. I myself am appalled by their lack of etiquette. This will be my only post on this matter.
