Nancy,

 

DAZ Sudio is less performing than Carrara (Trees, terains, shader tree, and multiple functionalities...).

I don't think they will be shifting to Studio, which is just a rigging softare.

Carrara will be abandoned like Hexagon. What else?

 

You know, In the begining, I've been drawing "realisic skins" for Vicky and Mike from 1999 to 2003: I was rated in the top 40 of Renderosity vendors. This work became boring, so I tried to find other product lines.

I had then first dispute because of having 2 separate stores (one for Vicky and Mike caracters, one for props or clothes - 2 brands = forbidden).

I came back here in 2005 making Carrara shaders for my pleasure: i was rated in the top 120 of Renderosity vendors with 5 products.

Now, in 2010, I was rated in top 230 vendors (with more than 20 Carrara products which means a hard work).

 

Believe me, they want only fresh and candid vendors.... (less of troubles for managing vendors)

 

50% brockering with no marketing or commercial support, that's just utilization of other's work.

This is my opinon ( 10 years of observation). No future...
