Aaawwww, I hope things can remain sun shiny and not dissolve into pointless debate about software or companies.  I'm seeing it crop up more and more and it's making me frown.  

I know it will be a little bit of a challenge to make content for Dawn for both platforms (for those that choose to do so), but I don't think it's going to be as difficult as people are making it out to be.  Just needs to get tutorials out there that explain the ropes for those who want to learn. 

There is nothing wrong with choosing to support only Poser or only DazStudio, if that is all a creator can or wants to do.  I hope we're careful about not putting too much pressure on people regarding that.  People should do what they're comfortable with.  I've no doubt that if enough civil requests for an item to be converted to whichever program it's not native to are made, that the vendors will do their best to fulfill that wish, whether by collaboration or learning how themselves, but only if their life situation allows for it.  Let's be careful not to scare vendors off, feeling they're under obligation.

Collaboration is a wonderful thing.  It's my personal favorite of ways to work.

I hope we can remember the topic of this thread.  We're in the freebie section of the forums and talking about a new figure coming who is going to be free; come with a free hairstyle, bikini, poses, skin (skin also a merchant resource), some expression morphs and a few shaping morphs, and dev rig.  She has been set up to be native to both Poser and DS with specialized rig and weight maps for each, but using the exact same mesh in each.  She poses and bends beautifully in both programs and has a pleasing appearance.  She has realistic proportions.  She has excellent expression morphs, etc. etc.  Her features have already been listed a number of times, so I'm babbling again.  

Anyways, I haven't seen a lot of addon wishlist items mentioned for her.  Weren't they supposed to be highlighted in blue or something like that?  Vendors might like to have more ideas of what sort of addon items the public wants for her the most so they can prioritize their offerings.
