DAZ taking over Poser...... that would be great! Seriously, because if DAZ does we will at least see some real development again, instead of all these flashy gimmicks. They should just combine the 2 apps into one well working application. Smith Micro should donate all of the Poser code to DAZ, as a little thank you, since it's because of DAZ that Poser is still around.

Give up 3D??? You mean I can't play games anymore on my recently purchased XBox that I was able to buy because of selling a lot of 3D assets I don't use anymore?

If Daz took over Poser we'd have real development? You're kidding right? Daz isn't a large company. It's a small office in Utah. Get real.

One thing everyone needs to remember is that Smith Micro actually has the money to invest in this little niche program we all love and hate...hehe. Daz has an awful tendency to buy a program and let it just sit....or release a new one with a mediocre upgrade. I'm not talking about DS now...I'm talking about programs they bought, like Bryce and Hexagon. Hexagon is for the most part dead and a new version of Bryce took quite a while as I remember. There's nothing at all wrong with the speed at which SM has been releasing Poser or the speed at which they've been adding new features.

Anyone who takes an interest in Poser is eventually going to have to move on to the DAZ figures, since they are better than those included with Poser. 

But isn't this kinda' like buying a car from Ford and then taking it to Toyota to put in the air conditioner because Toyota makes better a/c units ?!

They'll at least have to try to make the Daz figures compatible yes since they are the most popular.

I don't consider IDL to be a gimmick!  To me, it looks like it approaches the power of the Vray addon in Max!  And for a lot less money!

Riiiiggghhht. That was a joke wasn't it? As LaurieA pointed out. Not much money for development. Would end up like Hex. They have spent to much time and money on DS to bother with Poser. It would end up rotting on  a shelf and we would be forced to go with DS or just move on to something else. Also we would lose the competition which keeps both moving. With one gone, development would slow down even more. Not counting many don't like one app over the other. Not good for everyone concerned.
