Lyrra - some texture sets are worth as much or more than the base model. It's the 1 texture, or several color variations of the same 5 minute Photoshop fill that get annoying. Seeing lots of those makes us forget sometimes the really good textures that are available as well. If someone can take stock (purchased) characters, clothes, textures, and poses, yet still make a picture that touches others, does that lessen their skill any? Suppose PhilC had a contest where you had to use his Romantix set with Lyrra's textures and Schlabber's poses. You'd still see a very wide range of pictures and a very wide range of skill. There's still that special touch - artist ability, inner eye, whatever you call it, that will always separate the good from the great from the Masters.
