Meh. Small improvements.. now Vendors only see their own things advertized.. I guess that's always something. 

But I STILL wanted people to come to MY site... Guess what: I'm not SELLING anything from there.. The closest to a store is the link to my store here. But I like the hits. It makes me feel speshul! L Now.. I won't get any hits on my own site.. And I do have other things than freebies there, like a few tutorials and other randomness.. and who's going to see them now where there's no reason to go there in the first place?

And yes, I know all my previous 232 freebies are still linked to my own site. But now my site opens in a teeny weeny window that won't allow people to navigate, let alone FIND my freebies :(  So I suppose they'll feel scammed now.. coming to a weird, partially hidden splash page after all the clicking. And I can't even change the link, because then I'd have to upload the stuff all over again... and it's not like I have all the zips just lying here and waiting for that.. they're ARCHIVED! On DVDs.

Also the naming MUST be changed. I always tend to call my free stuff items something meaningfull, now that's for naught.

Oh and Sean... Anything I download that isn't zipped with a Runtime folder as the first thing.. goes right in my recycling bin. My life is too short to unzip everything to dummy runtimes first. I want to be able to drag my zips to the Poser folder and be done with it. I am pretty sure I'm not the only ione! (that's why the Market Place makes this mandatory, and that's what ReadMe files are for - to tell people what's in the zip. I don't need an extra layer of folders to tell me that this is new Materials for V4's bikini or whatever - quite the contrary.

You just can't put the words "Poserites" and "happy" in the same sentence - didn't you know that? LaurieA
