He has a new site at this link. Hopefully it'll up soon.Mesh, that was uncalled for. Anton makes wonderful products, and he can sell them or not sell them wherever he likes. I don't understand why people are always bashing some of the best artists we have. We are losing some of these people and that isn't a good thing. Would you prefer they just left Renderosity? I'd prefer we lose all of the bashers instead, those that are always trying to stir up something... <--- sick of all the trouble Mesh and his alts have caused over the last 2 years.
I have several of Anton's products, and couldn't be more pleased with them. As far as his stuff from Bbay, he said before that he's reworking a lot of his older stuff and decided to take them down, so that when the newer versions are ready no one will feel like they've been cheated, if they just got the older version. If you're looking for something specific you could email him and ask to buy it directly.
I remember way back when, Anton made the most wonderful peacock figure and put it in the Free Stuff (Funstuff then) section. I was so delighted with that peacock... I used it in about twenty pictures and made a down-tail morph for it. I told Anton that if he ever started charging for his stuff, I'd gladly pay, because he puts so much work and talent into what he does. Anton gave and still gives an awful lot to this community for no charge at all. When he put stuff up for sale in the store, I went shopping. And I haven't ever been disappointed in anything I've bought from him. -nemo
I for one don't mind paying a little because a lot of artists begin to think it's worth their time to contribute. Free is very very appreciated. But our prices are on the low side compared to other communities. I can tell you, I can't even think about paying the prices some want for simple .3ds files.
I know I do not usually comment much .. and I do not know any of the folks here that well.. but I do have to say that I have several of Anton's products and they are outstanding ... easy to use in the extreme and amazingly detailed , his fantasy armor outfits are just the best not to mention his furniture .. in fact when I won a contest that had some of his items among the choices given, I grabbed every one of them I could get and counted myself lucky..
Red Baron, Anton is still around, and he does check the forumns fairlly regularlly...his older bbay products have been discontinued for the reasons listed above...He's good about answering his email also if you need to contact him about specific questions or items...you can find his email link at Daz3D in the brokered section for sure! Mesh Magic, Didnt I already suggest that you try being nice every once in a while rather than always griping?...jeeze...And then you probablly sit and wonder why people gang up on you...You tell yourself its a clique, but it isnt, its just people sick of hearing all the griping...Do yourself a favor, earn some friends by being nice on occasion rather than always griping, you'll be a much happier person...Perhaps I'm wrong, maybe you're one of those people who actually enjoys having people gang up on them, because then they can fool themselves into beleiving the world is evil, and they are the only good thing left in it...wierd way of looking at things if you ask me! course you didnt ask me did you ;)...Guess you can chalk me up as being a snooty individual as well! Everyone else, Anton does do great work!...I have all of his products, and adore each and every one of them...and he just keeps getting better and better!...Occasionally I get to thinking I may be biased since I think he's such a great guy, but then I see alot of other folks talking about what wonderful work he does, so I know I'm not biased just lucky!
Mesh, Anton isn't only a damned fine modeler, he is innovative. His concept of a single dial for changing furniture, hair, what-have-you, is a step above what most other folks have contributed. It is something which can be built upon to make the products better and easier for everyone. True innovation (moving hair, JCMs, matfiles) is worthy of applause and encouragement, not a cut. I am more-than-pleased with my purchases. Note for Fauve, the peacock is still free in the PropsGuild, and there are other items there. I don't mind a touch of arrogance in those people who really are masters of their craft. But in those emails we've exchanged, he has been as kind and helpful as anyone could wish. Carolly
I don't mind a touch of arrogance in those people who really are masters of their craft. hoohaa... what gauntlets they have to run before they are allowed that tho! i'd say they'd have earned it twice over!

I can't speak highly enough about the quality and ease of use that Anton's products provide. I'm extremely happy with each and every one of my purchases! I believe that he is an excellent artist and feel fortunate that he chooses to share his talents with the community. Jazzmin

Thanks, hauksdottir! I still have my peacock (treasured it over the years) but I will cruise over to check out the other free stuff and see if there's anything I missed. Anton: will you ever release Joy again? I own Joy and love her... I use her in preference to Vickie, because while Joy is lovely, her features are more human and warm and less model-like than Vickie. I've had people ask me who the female figure was in my images, and when I tell them it's Joy and she's not available any more, they get bummed. And while classic Joy is great, if you ever get the urge to update her...! My credit card stands ready! ;-> -nemo
I have purchased more of Anton's products than any other single artist's, and am very happy with them. I have learned a great deal from that investment in our Master Artist's works, and someday soon plan to be a thorn in his side and give him a run for his money! ;p As to whether you like Anton or not Mesh Magick, did it ever occur to you that no one cares? If you think he is snooty, it is a reflection on your own inner self worth. He actually does not have to associate with or be nice to anyone, his products actually are enough. After all, one does not see Geoffry Beane associating with his customers, nor likely did one see Renoir doing much associating with his customers either. His work is actually enough, believe it or not ;) That he actually is personable and spends time with people and interacts, is a plus, and some of us, whose name I shall not say but whose initials are Mesh Magick do not deserve to be associated with perhaps ;)
Hi Folks! Just to set the historical record straight for you newbies: Anton did not remove his items because of criticism. Like a lot of artists unfortunately, he did so to protect himself from pirates and thieves. The criticism that was directed toward him was because he pursued the thieves a lot more openly and aggressively than most of us were used to seeing at these forums. But, if you could do stuff as good as he can, wouldn't you? I'm not trying to stir up a pot full of **** here. I will say, however, that I am impressed by the fact that giants like Anton, DuaneMoody, and Traveler, to mention just a few are still regular enough to answer private messages on Poser matters that may only be significant to me. That kind of helpfulness rates very highly with me. So, with regards to Anton, to paraphrase a tribute made to that late, great (and imaginary) Texas oil baron Jock Ewing: "those who know him will understand, and those who don't never will."
