The NFTs are loathesome, but I've done all I can on that. Anything I post about that now just gets deleted, so whatever. I'm not interested in anything 8.1, but there are still a lot of wonderful back-catalog items that I mean to gather up and use. So, Daz has done some things I don't love, but they've done some things I can appreciate - Clearance sales, for example. And I don't have the brainspace for another program, another ecosystem. I have Daz Studio, Blender, an old copy of Poser 7, and paint programs.That's all quite enough for me! I've got a handle on 3DL conversion of Iray stuff, so I can even do my renders in a reasonable amount of time without needing a fortune in new hardware. I apologize sincerely to my Carrara friends; but for me and my work, Blender won. And I'd rather focus on making new art than engaging in any sort of online bloodsport.
