Jaager, I think you either totally don't know what I'm doing, or totally don't understand me. Last I knew I never told anyone the size of my Marlin character file. I have never looked. I'm nowhere even ready to think of sharing him. If you look at the top of this thread, I am the one who started the thread, due to my concerns for the legalities involved. Now I wouldn't do that if I wanted to rip anyone off, would I!? As for the work or talent involved: You have your abilities and I have mine. You know what amount of work you're willing to do, and I know what I'm willing to do. I may be a computer nerd, and good at many computer related things. I stink when it comes to anything I call "programming." That includes editing cr2,s etc etc. You and others are very good at explaining things, and it shows. But I get to the second paragraph, and am hopelessly lost. I know the kind of effort it would take to even begin to understand the principles involved. I know if might be necessary to pay money to buy a program that would ensure the mission is accomplished. I have better things to do with my time and money. The way I see it, if it is in someone's best interests to protect their copyrights, they should go out of their way to provide their loyal customers with the means to accomplish that goal. After all, aren't we supporting Curious Labs, DAZ, Drax, et all by buying the product?! Drax has done his part with the Delta Pose technology. I even figured how to handle that in relation to a character or two. If someone or some company is not willing to do their part, then some people will either decide not to share their creations, or violate "the rules." Just remember, I and others are customers. We deserve to be treated with respect, and not hit with a bunch of heavy-handed rules, and impossible procedures. Obligations are a two-way street....
