Ouch. I thought Russ and Mehndi were trying to swim against the tide of rampant commercialism? All that talk about building a store where the artists get a bigger cut and the site pretty much only keeps enough to cover its costs... And Daz couldn't just open forums, they had to BUY them?!?!? "This means more artists can now sell at DAZ, and all those who have had to be turned for lack of space in their store..." So this is going to be the B-class Daz cast-offs? Come on, like Daz couldn't just expand their store if they needed more room. I don't blame Russ and Mehndi doing "business deals", but it certainly leaves them with their feet in their mouths. Not that I haven't tasted some toes in my time myself, but I still can't help feeling very disappointed.
