Circle, all it would take is a little pressure from the poser community to have this happen. If they remain seperate, I'm afraid that one of these companies will not survive for very long. It doesn't need to be that way at all. It really doesn't! The poser community loses in this as well and its sad because it really isn't necessary. I'd love to hear both their real concerns because I'll bet with the right attitude and the right arrangement, this could be a win/win situation for everyone involved. Instead of messing around in this type of very shortsighted behavior, they/we should be looking at ways to grow this market beyond belief. The potential here is huge. Too many growth possibilities to even list here! SO DAZ............CL...........Whats the story and can we/I help in any way to sort it out?
