I will never entirely lose faith. One thing I've done is to turn more toward my own creativity, and less to other external pursuits. I won't to any "advertisements," unless they fit into my projects. I can't think of any freebie things to do for awhile.... That stuff is so complicated. One example is the way I've needed to modify some "canned pose sets" because they never seemed to work right from the beginning. I routinely fix an entire pose set. I doubt I could release them as freebies, because the original creator might get mad. If the pose sets were made right at the beginning, I wouldn't need to fix them. Ron
