(As an aside, I just came back after being away several years, and I've been really shocked and saddened at how stagnant the Poser industry seems to have been. Was also surprised to see Hivewire3D gone as a store, leaving just "the Big Two" of Rendo and Daz.

(As a second aside, hi, Miss B! Nice to see you're still around. :) )

Hey Zaarin, I was surprised to see you on the forums lately, as it's been quite a while.  Good to see you're still around as well.  :slight_smile:

As far as the HiveWire3D store being gone, it's not, it's just moved here to Renderosity, and I'd say 95% of the CAs/vendors who didn't already have stores here at Renderosity, have also moved their stores here as well.  It was just getting difficult to run the store with a 4 person team, and then we lost one of the members of the team the beginning of last year, which made it that much more difficult.  The forum is still up and running, and a new version of Dawn is in the making, so keep an eye out for her.  :wink: 

Yeah, I think it's been around three years. I lost my files, and that made me lose interest in Poser for a while. I'm trying to reassemble what I can for a picture that I can't get out of my head without rendering it...without throwing too much money at Poser again. :wink:

That's good to hear about Hivewire3D; it sounds like the move to Renderosity was a lot less traumatic than when RuntimeDNA closed down. I was really sorry to hear about Lisa. She was always so nice to work with when I was a vendor at HW3D.
