Ron, I have the Tailor program. No, I haven't distributed any "tailored" items - YET. But if the items you distribute require the prior purchase of the models involved, and do NOT allow anyone who uses them to do so WITHOUT the models in question then DAZ has already said it's perfectly OK. I do, however, understand DAZ's point. Why would someone buy Mike 2.0, for example, if he could get the same effects by using Tailored clothes on Mike 1? Tailor was meant to do things like make posette clothes fit Vicky or make the Vicky clothes fit the Vicky morphs. It was not meant to be used to transfer Vicky 2 morphs to Vicky 1 or Posette. THIS is what DAZ is worried about happening, if I understand the FAQ and the post at PoserPros correctly. Actually, the way I see it, this is really no different than the other distribution limits for the v. 2.0 Millenium figures. You cannot distribute the .cr2 for them. You can distribute .pdf files, you can distribute .fc2 and .pz2 files, no problem there. This, I am sure, will all be settled in a similar fashion. In any case, I simply refuse to panic over it, and I would advise anyone else to adopt the same attitude. There have been similar cases where someone has misunderstood or misinterpreted something that DAZ or CL or someone else has said, panicked over it and then discovered that what they were so upset about, what they were so afraid of wasn't really the case at all. Not the first time that's happened, won't be the last. I say calm down, wait for the offices to open on Monday and then see what DAZ has to say and go from there. Give them time to wade through all of this so that they can properly address all the concerns and questions. Keep a cool head. Kate (going off to make some art now)
