Quote - Well, I mean, they're good at what they do, with the model-making.  I don't hate Daz.  And I wrote that at least partly in jest (and misspelled my key word - D'Oh).  But I'm not sure I fully trust them, either.  Not enough to potentially give them any level of control over what I might or might not choose to render, anyway.  Frankly, I'm a bit surprised by how many creative people aren't bothered by that.  Huh.

I don't hate Daz either. I buy stuff from them quite frequently. I LOVE their refund policy, and I have never got any hassle from them at all over products that just didn't live up to my standards. That aspect of customer service is one thing they do very well indeed.

But their store, their content, their galleries, and their forums are a bit on the puritanical side for my taste. When I hear that someone thinks it would be a good idea to code some of their moral judgments into their software, I can only roll my eyes.

But then I also read a thread in their forums in which someone was complaining about not being able to view the Daz site at work because of the nudity. I don't ever remember seeing any there... but some people will object even to nude wireframe images, just as they'll complain at clothing stores about unclothed mannequins. What can you do?
