I don't think you should shut up. Instead you should ask for what you want or need. As I wrote in the initial posting, we have an imbalance in the things we want to use and the things we can have and I think a lack of communication plays a huge role in this.
And by communicating I mean not only tutorials, but round tables with older, experienced Poser user or content creator, building a pool of ideas for fresh content and maybe some sort of workbench project for people who have a work in progress and need someone to get certain parts of that project afloat. Some people are good in modeling, but can't wrap their heads around subjects like texturing or rigging. Wouldn't it be nice to have a helping hand in such circumstances? The fact remains that the majority of content creators have left Poser, so my idea is to join the know how and human resources we have left and build content as a form of a community project. As I said earlier, my background is the free and open source software community, I use Linux, Gimp, Krita, Blender and Kdenlive. I think Blender and it's great and innovative community could be function as a good role model to illustrate my idea of a community. This doesn't mean you can't sell the fruits of such a collaboration, but that is another cane of worms to open another day.
What do you think, does this sound reasonable or does it lean towards crazy-land?
