"Poser is not the property of SM really, its that of the stupid motherf**kers like me that have invested time in it. SM are a bunch of dumb idiots that don't know the first thing about marketing......I'm kind of hoping the cute little white girl figure will wake up the dinosaur that is Smith Micro (along with some Japanese and African options of course), or at least the company that will buy Poser from SM."
No matter how much end users want to believe in a
commercial product. in the end Corporate bean counters will decide the fate of those products,
Pursue your creative objectives Dont try to change the minds of people who run corporations its not worth the stress...Life is too short
Also stop trying to please your online "Fans" at your personal expense....
Seriously!! A major Daz merchant just had a stroke and DIED recently
only four or five posts into the "Condolence thread" someone expressed concern about how long that DEAD Daz merchant's products would still be available.
....By Allah I could barely believe what I was reading!!
"Her Fans"... LOL
and Please don't bash SM about their marketing.
SM's poser marketing in particular has been brilliant and exceedingly efficient. it is based on the Empirical Data gathered from the result of previous releases.
Release native figures that few people actually consider useful.
Tack on a third party crippled fork of an open source PBR with virtually ZERO documentation except that which resided in the head of a tempermental Forum GURU who appears to be on sabbatical
Publish largely useless& boring "webinars"
and watch the loyalists spend hundreds of Dollars for the
Privilege of being "earlier adopters" rewarded with nice red badges to add to their online avatars.
Within six months lower the price to $49 USD and watch the loyalist ooz with glee over what a bargain
they are getting.
Microsoft are rank Amateurs compared to Smith Micro.
