I have been away and popping in rarely over the past 6 years due to having a family and losing a lot too,but now I have more time and have started to return to the poser good I've noticed a huge daz shift, the renderosity MP is predominantly genesis and so are the galleries, this doesn't bother me, I still like V4 and all the old figures, wasn't sure if the new features of poser 11 were going to be any good, but I'm impressed, and I'm looking forward to VWD cloth and hair,so I'm pretty happy with poser, ok there could be some updates that are long overdue, but all in all DAZ has nothing to offer me, in fact,it's new business model is good for me as I'm saving money instead of giving it to them, so carry on DAZ,I will stick with poser as it's a very good piece of software (not app).

One of the reasons that the galleries show a Genesis bias is that some Poser users have deleted their galleries and do not post here any more. Others that still do, find little in the market place for them and don't visit as often, again reducing the gallery upload. I am not saying that is the full story by any means and there is certainly a drift to Daz and Genesis but just because someone deletes their gallery does not mean they have stopped using Poser just as not buying here does not mean Poser users have stopped buying Poser content, they have just moved on.

You know, hornet, I think that's the part they just don't get.

DAZ PAs quit providing Poser products, so Poser users moved on.

Renderosity quits providing Poser products, Poser users move on.

They made their choice. They demand Poser User follow them to DS or move on.

Poser isn't dying. Poser USERS are moving on.
