A few words of explanation, even though its a bit of topic:
Did you know that it's against rendo rules to post in a forum an advertisement for a product? (Unless it's sold in rendo and then you can only post in the marketplace forum).
One of these bizarre rules which rendo powers that be enforce in a random way. They seem strict about it on poser but not vue forum apparently. Even blatant adverts like 'buy my product it's on sale' goes by here without a comment from a moderator. No wonder more subtle adverts are not objected to.
IMO threads which mix educational info(that can be used even if I dont buy the product) with sales pitches should be allowed . For example - eonite's cloud thread, I learned much more from it than from many pure 'help me' or social banter threads.
But if it just discribes the product - it shouldnt be allowed.
Either that or cancel the sily rule all together.
So it isnt against you monsoon - I'm sure the product is great. I have one of your products, and even though I havnt used any part of it 'as is' I learned from it a lot, so I'd recomend this product even though I couldnt see the images on any of my white goods, homey:)
Maybe the moderators will clarify what's allowed and waht isnt now that its come up in public, not just by off-forum requests.
