I hope Eric was kidding, too... By the time a person has modeled or textured or posed or lighted something (say 20 hours of work as a ferinstance), and either set up her own web site (more time!) or found another to host her (but is probably paying either way), made the thumbnail and put up the links in 2-6 forums, she probably wants to sit back and hope that a couple of people take the time to say thanks. Asking any potential uploader to submit to a credit check and verified history is absolute foolishness when you consider the number of members of this Forum who say that they can't order something or join a subscription site because they live in another country or are too young to have a checking account or credit card or whatever... and some of these people have names we all recognize. There are entire countries where it is rare to use a credit card. Also, just because DAZ uses .exes doesn't mean that it is the preferred method. I've purchased a fair amount (cough) from them, and have had to do a manual install on at least 3 occasions when the automatic installer failed to put files where they needed to go in order to be found. I usually end up moving them later anyway, and now simply go with the manual install as my first choice. As a former reference librarian, I'm a bit more consistant with my naming practices. ;^) Automation which scatters something over hell and gone doesn't save time... even if it is bug-free Carolly
