Well darn, I feel bad that the Alyson/Ryan developer is so hard hit by the reaction to these figures in the forums. Some one pointed out in another thread that the people who complain on the forums make up a very small percentage of the actual customer base. I suppose that is scant consolation seeing that people criticize much more voluminously than they praise. I don’t recall any "human" figure designed specifically for Poser that wasn’t received with far more fault finding than compliments, even the free ones. In this, the designer of the Alyson and Ryan figures stands in renowned company.

Poser isn't a "paint by numbers" product. It requires some creativity from its users. A lot of people consider any new content a challenge to their abilities and imagination, but to see how well people really like something one would probably need to look in the galleries. Also, some (well, a lot) of the post release developement of a figure is accomplished by the Poser community, often in the forums as people share ideas. Even the negative comments can be helpful.

Poser 8 comes with legacy content as well as the new content including Alyson and Ryan. I have always considered Poser content as value added items so that customers would have something to work with right out of the box. There are many free items out their for those who want to look, and of course, many of us have very full runtimes collected over several versions of Poser. There are already some new things for Alyson and Ryan offered at Content Paradise. Their versatility will be enhanced as content providers get to work.
