And here I expected more...

Then again, I have been out of touch for a while.

 Pengy, having worked in a business that involved the wearing of clothing where the laws of physics worked against me. I can tell yor that insofar as women are concented, poserdom is not hte only place where physics (or, more accurately, gravity, motion, and thermal dynamics) are ignored.

Seriously.

:D

 I see some things don't change ;)

bwahahahahahahaha

Cat?

Well, that does explain the hairballs all over the place...

Hiya Grey :D

LOL hail hail -- couple more xoco and it'll become really scary, lol

Good. 

Did I mention I've perfected bulletproofing?

:D

Thanks all :D

Thanks all :)

Hiya Khai, Jen, Inoda

Off to bed now, but I'll be back in full by April.

I'd say I'll try to behave, but, well...

I've sorta gotten really bad at that...

(yeah, I was good before :D)

I'm grinning, but that's as much as I'll let my ego get involved there, lol.

Yes, I'm looking for something to pay the basic bills of my life because I have some medical costs associated with my life at present that I need to pay for over the next year.

Once I've got that (which, until this medical stuff kicked in, Poser work was paying for), ODF will be back, including all the products I had made for it, which is why products of ODF's that are currently elsewhere are still available aren't "exclusives".

ODF isn't down because the market was tough.  I want to make that quite clear.  ODF did really well.  It kept a roof over my head and put food in my belly -- which is good enough for me. It wasn't giving me a lot of extra's, mind you, and one has to be obsessive about the business and the art of it to really make a go of it, as well as find a balance between the popular and personal, the consigned and brokered and held tightly.

The market is tough -- but ODF's going down was because I'm having a tough time of it myself -- and once I'm back online, you can bet that ODF will be back as well -- so look to get ditty with it again soon.

One of the most important things one can do in this biz is to keep going -- you need to have two to three new items a week, consistently and consecutively, in order to stay in the game.  By managing and balancing your projects -- which I didn't always do as well as I should have, especially when the bills got big or I got sick -- you can make a decent little income, if you are dedicated enough to it.

You won't get rich unlessw you are as prolific and genius heavy as some of the incredible creators out there, but it doesn't matter if you sell through DAZ, through Rendo, Through PP, or on your own -- like anything else, if you learn all there is to learn about your craft and pursue it with passion and competence, you'll make it.

Oh, and, just before I went into the program last year, ODF was getting 6K unique's from the US market (and another 3 K from outside), which given we didn't sell the "typical" super hot stuff should give an idea.  And about a third of my sales (personally) were from people outside the community.

Lastly, regarding the survey, it will return again -- I'm still committed to the open sharing of information and kinowledge for the betterment of everyone.

So hugs to all, raspberries to some, and evil grins to others from a coffee shop in Phoenix. Been a pretty wild ride so far and it's only gonna get more interesting :D

"stay out of my thread"?

How predictable.

The outfit is perfectly legal, without any sort of risk in its use or sale.

Companies complain about free advertising all the time, however. There is a difference between good publicity and bad publicity. The "there is no bad publicity" thing is no longer applicable.

For future reference:  The only times this would fall into issue would be if the particular set was specifically sold in such a way as to imply or suggest that the item in question was created by or sanctioned by Versace.

Digital Art is the overarching term for the entire coputer-aided artistic field.

After that, it gets funky, as noted above.

And MachineClaw is NOT a jerk, so whoever called him that best be apologizin...

Reading this and looking at the pictures, I'm going to say that this is the perfect for a figure like Laura -- the girl from the DAZ Young Teens pack, or one of dodger's Aeon teens.

Aside fro the age aspect, she also has the benefit of the more refined grouping and JP's of the later figures like Aiko, and she's got the right height.

Truth be told, although I'll never repeat it anywhere else, I'd like to see Blackhearted take on a custom figure for her, although it'll ever sell quite as well as his other work.

I did not get my answer. I got evasions, partial answers, and told that you would not answer my question because it wasn't worth your time. Don't mislead.

And I'm acquiescing to your request -- I won't start another thread about the topic.
