yes Daz could stop making Poser compatable Figures, But look at the big picture. If they quit they would loose sales, You could say they would gain a lot of Poser owners to switch. But the bigger picture is, if they are thinking. What if Poser came out with a better figure than the Daz figure. Goodby DAZ figures?

I've sceen some excelent figures, They are very expesive and are for 3DMax. But they sell very few of those figures in relation to what DAZ does, by making up in numbers. I was going to buy one of a Gorilla, and rig him up. An excelent model, Blows the DAZ Gorilla out of the water, Very expesive in relation to other Poser compatable models. But I wanted the very best for my project.

Mass sells can turn a lot of heads. There is big maket potential,  I think what should be done is sell the Top Quality Figures Seperate from the Poser Figures from the Program, That will give a Figure maker more insentive to make a super model and make his money on Mass sales. One could say it's a gamble to put in that kind of work with no guarantees. But a modeler has to have confidence in what he can achieve before he attempts such a project.

 The biggest problems with new models is Clothing, and hair support. If I had the time I would do some modeling. The real trick is to get the figure rigged so all the movements don't distort. There is no reason that a modeler out there can't make an excellent figure. I see excellent models out there at the high end program stores. That don't mean they wouldn't be interested in making models for poser. If you like modeling, You will model. The rewards will be there. Especially if DAZ turns away from Poser.

I like Poser much better than DAZ Studio, the only reason I have Daz Studio is so I can import the Aniblocks into Poser so I can then fine tune them in Poser. There are couple of things that DAZ Studio has I'd like to see incooperated into Poser, but that's a different story. The main thing is not making a model in a rush.

I would rather see Poser not make a new model for a few Poser Versions, and keep what they havein those versions, than rush to put something out that the cloths don't stay on as good as the DAZ figures and the body part meshes distort very easy. You clean those areas up with a very good model, then Who needs DAZ, all of a sudden, Daz may have cut their own throat. There is aways two side to every coin.
