Well, I do feel sorry for you if you can't see what this is all about. (And btw, I have paid more than $7.95...) I just don't find it very ethical to sell texture sets as new textures when they're actually the old one slightly modified. It's not even only about money, it's about a principle. And if I didn't buy all those sets separately, others did. They just haven't realised yet that they bought one body texture five times. And raska - those are five different body textures. They aren't just Lisa, Sarah and Kora. They are Lisa, Sarah, Kora, Anna (or Anna-Maria?) and something that was simply called Victoria body texture. If for you it's not significant that the body textures are almost identical it is for me. And considering the responses in this thread I'd say it is for many others as well. Catharina, go ahead and remove me from your members list. If I want "new" textures I can always use that same body and slightly adjust its hue... and then add a bit of make up for one of the old textures. That's what I would get at Mecom anyway ;) And finally, to LisaB: I hope you don't feel I was putting your work down in any way. I have seen your new Mermaid textures at DAZ and to me they look absolutely gorgeous. (A couple of days ago I showed them to my significant other just to show him what a gorgeous promo picture should look like).
