>> "Jenx is somehow blaming the customer & sparing MS"
Sorry, cant agree with that. Speaking as a dinosaur, I can remember (will you kids get off my damn lawn! when Poser was still fun, not loaded down with store after store after store. The email newsletters had tips and tricks in them, not non-stop ads for more stuff to buy. Folks shared their stuff freely: you didnt see righteous threads about "someone stole an acne scar from my texture and buried it so deep no one but me can see it and I am royally POD!!!!!!!" Someone put up a texture, someone took it and modified it and put it back up, and so on and so on. You learned along the way... how to take a simple dress and turn it into a hundred outfits just by applying a transparency map... which assumed, of course, you knew how to make one in the first place, and if you didnt, someone would show you.
But now, we're all so obsessed with "make me this!" and "make me that!" that we've somehow lost that spirit of adventure and fun that this program used to have.
WILL YOU DAMN KIDS GET OFF MY LAWN!!!!
