LadySilverMage, I had several characters already created for about a year. They were my Marlin Fingle characters. Those characters had been created to eliminate Crosstalk with any Millennium figures. The only thing that kept me from releasing those figures was the difficulty in learning exactly how DAZ wanted things done. Believe me I've tried and tried to get translations for that information. Then, after all those months, I release yet another character who had been fixed to eliminate Crosstalk. He was in a cr2. Yes, according to recent revelations, that one was prepared and shared incorrectly. My next character was a Millennium Girl, and she began life as a cr2. I was informed of a name conflict, and at about that time I had finally discovered how to create a MOR pose file. I pulled that Millennium Girl, changed her name and substituted the MOR file for the cr2. So I was "half wrong," there, but I fixed the problem. I created another figure, "my answer" to big breasted super heroines. She was a MOR pose file, not a cr2 file. Do you see the trend, toward the "acceptable means of sharing?!" Each of these figures had Tailored clothing. I had waited 4 months to be sure there were no objections, legal or otherwise, from DAZ or others, In fact I had even contacted Serge for permission to Tailor his Millennium Girls clothing packs. He granted permission. After close to a year, I had finally released some free characters, and planned to release more. Then DAZ came with their sneaky announcement. Most of Renderosity wasn't aware of the "Tailor Proclamation" till I went to PoserPros and brought back the news. I damned well could have had my characters out close to a year ago, if I'd been able to understand DAZ's FAQ, or get someone to translate. I damned well would not have released Tailored clothing if DAZ had been clear on their stance from the start. Frankly I'm damned angry and tired. You have no just cause to harass me. No one does. But that doesn't stop you from acting out. *** In the past week I've put my own needs aside to create two tutorials that people requested. I then released my characters. It just isn't worth the effort any more. As it stands right now, my recent characters will not be revived at least until I am sure how it can be done without risking legal action. Even then I'll damned well think about it for awhile. I'm fighting a cold right now, and I'm lucky to keep myself sitting upright on this chair, let alone thinking clearly or feeling better. It's time to stop wasting that physical and emotional energy. I really debated about whether I should release the last few tutorials and freebies since every freebie usually was followed immediately by someone's attacks, or some sort of other challenge from this community. Now DAZ is in the mix. I'm taking a break. I won't create anything to give to this community at least till I feel better physically. At that time I'll see if I feel like giving of myself for other reasons.
