For a minute there, I thought he was talking about me :biggrin:

After all, I'm one of only two here who posted a half-hearted render (which only took like 10 minutes work, if that, so that's a big fat positive for Poser in my book).

"Don't know if I would aggravate potential customer's that use Vicky."***

But Vicky in all her innocence is a "potential" threat, she's almost a monopoly.  You can hardly blame Roxie for picking-up on that.  Monopolies need to be dealt with no matter what industry they're in, because if you fail to do so, those monopolies turn around and deal with you instead - it's the nature of the beast.  Victoria's popularity is a perfect example of something that Smith Micro could, and should, deal with.

One thing they absolutely should not do, in my opinion, is support Genesis.  The program is more important than the figure, simply because, the figure is always free to be modified by the customer whereas the program, isn't.  What this means is that the "potential customer" would be faced with a choice.

Do they go with their figure of choice, or program of choice?

Naturally, the answer to that one is "program of choice" because the figure can be always be adapted by the customer, whereas the program, cannot.  Remember, "potential customers that use Vicky" only exist because there are "customers that use Vicky", and that's what needs to change or at the very least it needs bringing down to equal levels of popularity between the DAZ and Poser figures.

Technically, Roxie is already popular in that she exists in every Poser 10, Pro 2014 Runtime, and she will still exist in the next, and the next, and the next.  The amount of lagacy figures in the Poser Runtime should be indication enough to "potential customers" that buying content for Roxie, or in fact any Poser figure, is pretty much as safe as it gets from an investment point of view.

Think about that.

The problem, though, is to make customers see it like that, to get her out of the Runtime, and into the renders.  It's likely the only way you'll ever get to see those "Killer Roxie Renders" you speak of.

I should point out that "ROXIE - THE INTERVIEW" wasn't actually posted for the reasons I just pointed out above.  As with EClark, it's there as light-hearted fun and I'm guessing Roxie is literally laughing her nipples off right now.

Right Rox?

Yeah man, chill, I have plans for Vicky so don't get too attached - 'k?***

I just raided the DAZ stores and discoverd over a thousand of the biches!*
It's gonna be harder than I thought.

So here's the plan: you get someone from here to help me out.  Send them over to the DAZ forum and tell them to let the people over there know that Roxie is out to get Victoria - and point them to my interview as proof.

**Then, while they're all over here trying to hunt me down, I'll be over there, hunting the btch down.  By the time they all retreat back to the DAZ forums, I'll have her ass for shoe-leather!

Roxie's the name, Posing's the game:******

POSER>RUNTIME>ROXIE!
