The new program is real and under development. How gaseous it is you will have to judge for yourself as time goes on. I posted in an earlier thread a request that users post wishlists for what they would want in a desktop 3D app. If there is something that you would like to see please post it. Even if it does not appear in any initial versions it may be included later. Think big, think out of the box. Think about the entire process you go through to create an image or animation. What would you like to see to make that process easier, faster, less painful? In a perfect, blue sky world, what would you like to have? What would you like to be able to do that you can't do now? New, fresh ideas are always welcome. Developers don't read minds so if you don't ask for it, it will not be considered a priority. The first stage in properly managed software development is getting and analyzing user requirements. Well constructed software will also have flexibity to expand and include new requirements over time. You usually can't get everything that everyone wants every time so you try and make a well-balanced app that meets as many of the requirements as possible. Even if CL or Daz don't pick up on a request, there are a number of other developers out there who might. BTW, before anyone bitches at me about the Daz e-store I can truthfully say I had nothing to do with it. I don't do that web programming stuff.
