I dont think me sending you my mastercard info through an email is a very secure idea, Kristi

I tried that KristiS, I even talked to someone there on the phone about it, giving them the card info..and it still would not work. I know the card is good, been using it for quite a few years now, and I am definitely the person the card is assigned to. Not all of the 3D world fans are young folk..which seems to be the group every industry caters to these days..but we are just as willing to buy as they are..so hope your company can fix this, I dont want to get stuck just shopping at the "D" word company. I use the V4 model a lot still and surprisingly they dont seem to support it as much as they do here, not to mention limited selection of other concepts too. This is not to say they are a bad place, but I like the idea of more than one choice when I need new models, etc. I have enjoyed rosity a long time..people here are helpful in the forums when I have 3D questions, and most act like they appreciate doing business with me as well :)

Thanks for the info takezo3001m and yes you are right, I also use Direct Express. So I guess with that in mind there is no point of me attempting purchases here any longer. Sad that an American company wont accept an American payment, even more sad to a lot of merchants that will not have this method as an avenue for sales. Guess I will head over to the other guys (reluctantly) because I wont revert back to paypal and all their stupid fees, etc. As I said before though, some of the best merchants and deals are here. As far as Tennessee rules, well a wild guess here but I am pretty certain even folks in Tennessee are paid this way each month as well, and probably have no problem using the card about anywhere they shop, etc

yes perhaps, but I have tried every angle to get this to work.. even updating payment method, etc..and still no go. I am a vet and I get my money put on that card every month..and I can be pretty sure..more than adequate amount is put there to perhaps make a $20 purchase around here.. I just dont understand why it is refused here, but not by the "other" place.. and during my history since becoming a 3d fan..I have purchased more here than there over the years :( some say link paypal to it..but there is no way I will put my entire monthly lifeline in the hands of paypal..too many horror stories about that

Wow thanks so much to the both of you..I will definitely set a better table with these :)

Hi Jim, I also use D|S but I am not real versed on this..but did you make sure you exported as whole body, or maybe hip? I am not sure..I know that is how it is done in Poser. I am sure others have a solution :)

hi Adh..I want to use a ground avi to create the illusion of water flowing under the characters feet..like would happen when someone approaches a bathroom where the sink was left running and flowing out into the hallway :)

Thanks bill for the help..most appreciated :)

Hi bill, Yes I guess using 2 simultaneously would be correct. I understand how to do them as backdrops..but not quite sure how to place another on the ground plane.

An example would be clouds moving accross the shy backdrop, while water or whatever flowing on the ground plane.

Any syggestions? Or would that even work?

By the way that node thing always gets me confused..lol

I am not saying anything is wrong with D|S I been using it too for years. You are right for what it does, it does well. Yet again, another vote for Poser Pro 2010. Glad to hear that word "stable" too. That's always a comfort :)

thanks.

cspear, although i don't think D|S is all that bad. The one thing I have trouble with also is navigation.

hborre, very true..seems lots of products over there have that buy more addon routine.

Robyns and Ghost..Never used P7..still back at 6. I can recall people giving bad on it too against 5. LOL

so I think what I can conclude from feedback here.. Poser pro 2010 sounds like a winner :)

Would be best in the future to let these vendors just run their ad on site. Most of us check rosity often for new deals at the marketplace anyhow..What I think made many suspicious, including me was that the email diverted to another web site, and not Renderosity... Had it just went back to here, no problem..Just my 2 cents :)

thanks search..well what I was hoping to do is place a flowing river on the ground plane, and have a barge coning down it.

Of course the barge would just be treated as a simple object..but abthow to create the illusions of it actully being on water..

This would be an anination, not a still life

Thanks for the feedback, trekkie G :)

 Post production :)

 Thanks everone for all the great tips. I remember using objaction tools back when..time to re-discover it perhaps :)
