Well, I am fairly sure we are required to make our products fit into the directory structure. Customers who wish to customize their installations can easily choose their own folders by extracting into a separate temp directory, renaming their folders, and then dragging the result on top of their Poser directory. Please remember that we often have to create for the "lowest common denominator"--meaning, Poser newbies who are not yet able to customize product installations because they aren't familiar with the poser file structure or types.
As for the marketing stuff.. well, I personally spent many, many hours on my promos, getting feedback as I went along, gritting my teeth, and fixing every little problem I was told about. "Looks great.. but that hair is no good. Change it. Better.. but the color clashes. Change it. An improvement.. but did you notice that she's crosseyed? Fix it." I have no problem admitting that promo work has reduced me to tears of frustration on at least one occasion. ;) I look at it this way: If I spent two weeks slaving away at a product for up to 14 hours a day, the promos should show it. I find the restrictions about postwork a challenge; how good can I make it look inside of Poser? And that's really what it's about.
