Quote - I detect a note of disbelief in the above comment, but if one does not create for money then what else? Very few people bother to say thank you (the ones who do are memorable) so it's not that. There is, however, a great deal of satisfaction in creation and self improvement.
I do not see how it is reasonable to criticise a body of people because they are not considered creative enough. I also believe that whoever criticises others for lack of creativity is honour bound to themselves be creative so we can judge the their criticism fairly.
I think the point KobaltKween was trying to make was that as a group, Poser content creators are making more and more the same sort of things (clothing, in particular) instead of taking creative risks. She was not targeting any developer in particular and certainly not people who create new stuff to offer as freebies. Look at the top-selling items - it's pretty obvious when money talks.
As I said: market taste determines what the market will create. What sells most is sex (unfortunately). I personally hesitate to send people who are curious about Poser and what I do to the main Rendo site because to the uninitiated, some of the content advertisement images must look a bit over-the-top tarty ... something we who have been "Poserised" can't really appreciate anymore. It's a bit monochromic in that sense. Yes, sex is fine, but when that's the main theme, one gets a reputation... :biggrin:
Feel free to shoot me down... :rolleyes:
