Yes, WW is packaged with Poser 8, BUT the way that it works isn't universal for all figures. PhilC has to make files to add to WW for each figure that is going to get support and a lot of those you are going to have to pay extra for. Money well spent if you can convert clothing to and from several figures if you ask me. Point being, not all figures get the benefits of WW in Poser 8.
We put our Project Human figures out there for people to use, learn with or simply play with and we have made some support packages for them, but that wasn't thier point or purpose. Our Uni-Dwarf is getting a lot more support from us clothing wise. But to be honest, Les really just likes making figures...making clothing is another art altogether is seems sometimes. We've tried to make support our figures and easy as possible with making the CR2 files distributable, the morphs, the textures can be altered and distributed, etc...just about everything but the actual obj file and people seem confused. I will get emails asking if they can make a pose pack for one of our figures or a texture...it is just bizzare. Who scared people into thinking that supporting a product was a complicated process ? We try to encourage people as much as possible to try to learn new things and to share them or sell them or whatever, but it should be fun for them. I digress, we know that the Poser default figures and the DAZ figures are always going to sell more than ours....but there are just some things that we want to do that are easier to do with our own figures than someone elses. Don't think that all original figure creators are making human figures with mad dreams of conquering the Poserverse. As far as toon figures, yes they are very stylized by the nature of what they are....some sell well, some don't. It is hit or miss, but that isn't going to stop us from making what we enjoy creating.
