I thought I was making it clear that I wasn;t "bashing" anyone, I was trying to point out that there is an opertunity opening up that could be mutually beneficial to creators and users.

the thing is no single creator, or even a small team can support a new, or majorly modified figure with every thing people want. But if enough people make even a small individual effort it can do wonders for the user base and maybe put a couple of bucks in someones pocket.

I guess I see this a little different. When I got into Poser there were only a handful of sellers, mostly it was scrounge for freebies or learn to make it your self or do without. I don;t think you need thousands of dollars. I work with silo which is a very reasonably priced software that included UV mapping and some sculpting tools (not in zbrush's class but very usable with a little effort). and I use UVMapper Pro which was in the range of $25 when I bought it I think the free version is floating around out there. 

Again this isn;t criticism or bashing, I can well understand that you may not want to learn software or possibly don;t have the time, that's how those of us that do sell stuff make money, but you can also put your requests in the form of a request in the Wishlist Forum, something I try to look at about once a week or so (but I am terribly slow at making content since I get sidetracked playing with new features to frequently, and just today I crashed my working hard drive with most of my modeling and poser software so I'm now really out in the cold for a while). 

True. I really shouldn't have used such strong language. I'm sure you weren't intending to bash, or even criticize, anyone. It's easy to become sensitive to the argument that we should just make stuff ourselves. Sometimes, when it's directed at those who are capable of contributing (as your post is), it's useful and even inspiring, but sometimes it's used as a way to put down those who don't create content. I've heard the argument so many times as a way to discount the opinions of mere users that I guess I'm a bit oversensitive. Mea culpa. Not your fault. I owe you an apology. I'm sorry.
