This is just my personal experiance, but I started using daz studio 1.7, and have pretty much used it all the way up to DS4 release. OK so I was siked about DS4 until I loaded it, the layout (UI) changed ok so look it up and get ready to try it out, and the workflow of doing my creating like doubled from what DS3 did, ok so voice my opinion on forum to be met with snyde remarks, ok I play well in that environment, if you know what I mean, but eventually calm down from the die hards that think Daz can do no wrong, then they announce that there will be a reverse back UI to DS3 but it is gonna cost, so the logic within me, is why is it gonna cost but the new UI the "standard" of Daz now, which just seemed bass ackwards to me, you pay for upgrades not downgrades, so again voice my opinion of that, and mind ya I was doing it nicely, until I opened my eyes to the change of the regime polocies they were instilling, which at that point I said f it, and started learning my version of Poser 7 that I bought merely just for rigging models, instead of saving up for the fig setup tools, and have pretty much used Poser since, I thought ok i will still buy the content people create from them but just switch to Poser for my workflow,  I see Genesis, or as i call it Hermaphromesh, arrive. At this point I have stoped even trying to voice a solid opinion in the forums, cause it is pointless, they don't listen even though they say they do. I see more and more frustration and given Daz's bug fix record, and over promises and under deliverance, for the money they are asking, I can put forth into buying, Poser Pro 2012, or even put it in an account and save up for far superior 3d programs, that are more likely to keep the end of their product description. Now don't get me wrong, this might be a kewl thing for new user, but I am not a new user and feel as though Daz is pretty much casting out their loyal customer base, thinking they are gonna make a buck, in the long run, by rebranding this new atrocity that is now Daz3d.com. Just my opinion from experiance, and I have avoided buying from the site because I feel they are or have had their minds taken out by a rouge group of zombies. and I will not support that kind of greed in sheep's clothing. You can say all day long that they give away alot of stuff cheaply, but really if you look at the prices, and with all the snazzy plugins, render aids, new and improved this for this, but you have to rebuy something you already have to work for this, is the big saving feature worth it, my opinion NO... It seems though alot of the places seem to forget without US they are nothing... Sorry if this is an unwarranted rant, but I am really ticked off at them, more about the new "image" they are trying to project, than cost, even though i do think their costs are as laughable as Bozo the Clown. But then again what do i know... I aint working for Pixar, or Lucus Films, so I don't know Jack, but I do know Jack left town...
