I remember the discussion regarding the issues on some figures, well most figures were discussed if I remember correctly.  It was very informative and gave me a much better understanding of the problems vendors face.  Unfortunately, as you say, the debate grew heated and despite valiant attempts to moderate it came to the end that so many useful posts come to.

Having gone through a lot of the Digital Tailor tutorials I can just about manage to produce some basic clothing and props.  I don't think I will ever be very good but that has nothing to do with the tutorials, which I found excellent, more a limitation of my skills and attention span.  It did however leave me thinking, if it takes me this long to build something simple, just how much effort goes into building something I am going to pay $10-$15 for.  Believe me I am in no position to criticise any vendor I am just glad they continue to produce the goods.

One of the reasons I post in the gallery here is so that I can link to the product and show others just how good they can be when used by someone with limited skills like me.  If the price I have to pay for all this is having to move a few folders and change a few file names then bring it on, I can do that quite skilfully.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
