**I'm one of the Platinum Club Victims... ** and I've decided to drop my platinum subscription and switch to Renderosity.  (I may even pick up Poser Pro 2012.. its $299 till the end of the month.)

Nothing seems to work... including the massively over loaded complaints department.

I'd prefer if Daz would simply say they screwed up and give a delivery date for fix.   Maybe put a 'closed for business sign till end of month' flag on the site.  I intensely dislike this 'maybe tomorrow' attitude towards fixing all this.

Its as though they want me to test their web site and tell them what they are doing wrong.  I resent that.  Richard?  What can't you guys test it?

What I can't figure out is why...  I mean.. I spent $6000 over the last year or so.  I'm certainly not the only person who's done that.  Who decided to launch a half assed untested web site and antagonize the customers.  Hell... run it in parallel to the old one.  Flip the switch when the databases start matching.  I really don't get it.

I'd like to end a more positive note...  I can't.

Quote - I haven't uploaded any renders lately. This render is part of a another scene, which will be rendered in due course. This is the fullsize render, in the other scene it is part of the background.

Another hard core chess game?

I really like the pose... just work on the lighting.

This will be the last I do in this series.  I guess I'll get back to my more mundane fantasy shots.  (Perhaps naked gun babes are in order.)

And the link...

So, he'es another...

And the URL;

So... this is new to my Gallery;

http://www.renderosity.com/mod/gallery/browse.php?user_id=707942

I'll probably make a whole series on this because its easy to play with the lighting.

Bobvan... you're getting fast and they are looking really good.

Excellent... I like this one a lot.

To chime in... thanks as well.

Quote - Very cool UHF

 

The DAZ site is all fraked up

I feel anger for the 'tards that be over there.

The store has some namby pamby comment section... Like I need a longer page to scroll through all so I can comment on something I haven't bought yet.  They lost my first order completely.  I have no idea why yet, but they've been paid so what gives?

Its like they hired a newb to run the show. "You need this wowwie wizywig crappola!" "Cool Dude."

Couldn't they test it before going live?  In software that is all we do.  If you find a programmer coding more than 20% of the time, he's incompetant.  Documentation, and testing... is the other 80%.  It seems pretty obvious to me that they had a very poor set of test cases.  (It worked once... SHIP IT!  Oh... doesn't work under those conditions?)

And timing... Here's our latest test release let us know if you have any issues.  POOF! Site down.  Have they heard of this thing called MANAGEMENT?  Its not something you step in.

PFFFT!

They say Genius is step away from madness.   Lets just say they are one step beyond....

NOTE to Renderosity... copy Daz's old webpage and put them out of business.**

Hmm....   I got the Bungalow on sale...  A bunch of that artists stuff came up a few months ago.  I got like $1400 of stuff in my wishlist, and when it comes up I buy it.
