The good news is that more clothing, textures and poses have been released. You will find them in the Daz Original and Published Artist's Forum. Shorsha and Throne also have released an updated Pookling set with wings. I'm looking for the Prom night set and the fantasy set when they become available. As for the Aeon Figures... Someone mentioned that they don't take face morphs too well. Funny, I was able to apply the "Arwen" morph which is located here with no problems whatsoever. Then again I'm also using AEON figures to learn how to convert clothing. To repeat an earlier comment... No one is twisting your arm to buy this. Right now, DAZ, Dodger and Sixus1 are the only three that have Pre-teen or younger figures on the market (that I have found). I held off on buying the original Pre-teens because I was not impressed. I like these new models.

No, Their first priority is investigating the claim and getting the effective items off the market. Sorry, if this offends someone, but people need to realize that if they start hurling accusations without proof, then they open themselves up to legal action against them. Plus it is not easy to go through the customer database to find out who purchased these models so they had a better idea of the damage done. Right now if you have one (Or more) of the affected models, you can either wait for the new version be built, or call Sales for a replacement item or refund. The HMMV and the Blackhawk were PC bonus items. The M1 Abrams was a Premiere store item and not the tank in the Platinum Bonus Area (just to reiterate what others have been saying.)

Actually, if you have purchased the models in question, you should have received a recall e-mail.

If you have an account with Poserworld, they have several pieces there that might be of interest

I just completed my second render using SP. For morph, I applied one of Danie & Marfarno's characters from Circle of Light and she worked out pretty well. For hair, I used Firebirdz ROAR and Roar a lil Louder kits to fit the Gracelion hair to her. Netherworks also has a Hair kit that is free. I also played around with the feature morphs. There is a free expression kit here that work pretty well and there are pose packages out by several people. I find there is a lack of support for this character, but programs like MarkDc's Quick Conform and Clothes conformer are a plus in convert existing fasions over. pdxjims mentions Dodger's Aeon characters, well he also has a clothing convertion tutorial out that walks you through the process of converting clothes over. You are also able to also use V3 clothing textures on many of the identical stephanie pieces (I.E MFD and Tunic sets...) So there are options out there to make Stephanie a viable character.

Well, instead of dissing the artwork, how about asking for it in a courteous fashion. Many people here also design the plug and play pieces you are so down about, so your little barbs is a slap in their faces as well.

Well, Khai, when the request is put that way then there is no problem. But when coupled with insults like it was, then I think you can see where people took issue.

Quarker's Hiar models, But I also couple them with Firebidz Morphs so the style changes plus he/she has been including Fit-To Morphs so you are not limited to V3... but literally any figure out there. Netherworks has some nice hair models too. PLUS... Big plus here, they also offer conformers that allow you to adapt hiar from one figure to another. I have been playing with the David Hair Kit and it is Sooooooo easy to use as long as you follow the instructions provided. Kozburo has a large number of hair files available for free. He recently did an interview with www.rdna.com. Plus there are a number of freebies here in the freebies section. Daz has a few hair settings for sale. Cuff n Tail and Haughty hair are great items and they offer some texture packages seperately. Haughty Hair was created by AprilYSH and she has a few other models available for sale on Poser Pros.

I'm attempting to construct a scene in POser 5 in order to Render it in D|S... I'll let you know how that goes.

Again, there is no waste of money. Daz does have a 30 day money back guarantee and you can either apply that to more items, or get it put back on your credit card (Or any other method of payment)

DAZ is having Dbase issues on the Store and Front pages. Forums are up and running. Is it possible your copy got corrupted, because I was playing with my copy and I had no problem with the texture maps.

Precisely. Only he is attributing that to one program in a narrow-minded sort of way

Yes, It does get annoying. He is asking for an option to exclude one catagory because of his opinions. Well, unless there is more support, I don't think it is worth the webmaster's time to redesign the ENTIRE Database on the basis of one perosn's complaint. I don't think he realizes the enormity of the task he is asking for.

You got lucky. I had no problem with getting a copy of Neverwinter Nights that way too (my copy cracked physically.) I'm just saying beware, because there are reports over on DAZ3D of people getting Pirated CDS.
