Glad to be of some help :) I understand what you mean by tutorials assuming things.  I'll see if I can find some that may be useful to you and post them here...

Hello moonhawk and welcome :)

As cedarwolf mentioned, there are some very well written tutorials in the tutorial section here on Renderosity so that might be a good place to start. 

Might I inquire as to which version of Studio you are using?  There was a big change from version 3 to version 4 so if I know which version you are using I can point you to come specific tutorials which might be of use to you :) 

As ZamuelNow said, the Shayana character you linked to contains options for Genesis and V4. 

The V4 and Morphs ++ are required for the V4 version while the Genesis Evolution Morphs and Genesis V4 Shapes are requried for the Genesis version. 

The Genesis skins/MATs should work fine on Genesis without needing any additional shapes, but if you want to get the look of the promos, you'll need to buy and install the Genesis Evolution Morphs and Genesis V4 Shapes packs :)

From what I understand of the DSON utility, you are correct. 

The only exception to this would be Genesis/DAZ Studio 4 products which contain DUF instead of DSF files.  I am unsure if there are any of these in the marketplace here at this time as it's a new format as of DAZ Studio 4.5. 

I will have to look into this a bit further and provide a list of any products that are compatible with DSON...

You're very welcome, mbin :-)  I spent longer then I would like to admit revising the post so that it would, hopefully, be easier to understand.  I am glad that it makes sense and is clearer now!

This rule has been revised and the first post has been edited to reflect these changes. 

Thank you all for your feedback and cooperation. 

Please post any questions you have concerning the changes :)  

My apologies for not responding sooner.  I wanted to check to make sure on somethings before I responded. 

It has always been a rule that resources, etc could not be linked to as links to offsite products are not allowed and links to freebies are only allowed in the Freestuff Forum.  However, as of August 15th, all links to DevianArt are prohibited except in the FreeStuff Forum as they are advertising text and are not allowed.  

I hope that clarifies things :)  The staff realizes that this is a big change and will take some time to adjust to (for the staff too!).  Please feel free to contact any of us with questions, comments, or concerns you have so that we can do our best to make this change as smooth and painless as possible for everyone.    

Awesome images!  Congratulations to all those selected.  Thank you for sharing your work with us :)

Beautiful images!  Awesome work all and congratulations :)

Ok, I have talked to Kristi and, yes, this means that if you use a deviant art link as your signature or post it on your image, this needs to be changed as they count as static links. 

Concerning older images, this new policy went into effect on the 15th of August. Therefore, anything posted before then can stay as it is so you do not need to worry about going back through your gallery and removing links to DA from images or descriptions that were posted before this date. 

I have upated the announcement to reflect these clarifications as well :) 

If there are additional questions, please let me know!

I believe that links posted on image would count as a static link, but I will double check and let you know asap!

The photo gallery was exceptional last week and it was hard to pick so few images out of so many great ones :)

Congratulations to all!

Sorry, fell behind on this as I lost electricity for most of the weekend! 

Great images everyone.  Thank you so much for participating!

Very cool, ZamuelNow!  Thank you for contributing :)
