I think it's quite funny that staff is really quick about this issue (with only one complaint?), but since how many years do many of us ask for a better form of communication in the galleries? Like more than one comment and one answer?

Guess it's easier to switch a function off than alter a numeric part of a code.

I do not like "image comments" either (I also don't like one word comments... so there you have it), but I do like to share music videos with quite some other users. Losing that option in the process is... meh. But you can't have it all, aye?

I wonder though if the preview (your comment) button was killed in the process of getting rid of image comments. If so: good job...

Well I guess this will be handled the same way as the past wishes for a less limited way of communication in the galleries (not just one comment and one possible response)... things simply will not change.

To be honest: I could easily live without any reward system. If I have some image I want to show, I upload it, am happy with any feedback that comes my way (having a conversation to me is worth far more than any reward points whatsoever, but that's just my opinion). And if I see something in the shop I like: I buy it. If it's on a sale: cool. But I sure don't need any extra ways to lower a product price.

I left deviantart years and years ago, cause the immense upload rate there was too much for my tastes. I went back to renderosity about 2 years ago and thought this site still has got things that I don't like that much, but overall it's pretty fine. But seeing that staff most often does not bother to listen to the concerns and wishes of users (oh hey: customers, aren't most of us also customers?)... well... that's disappointing.

Just plowed through another almost 3 pages of the same upload-spam... it's ridiculous. But secretely staff won't be doing anything, because the actual spam comes form a "prime member" & "vendor". So why should we kill off the hand that feeds, aye? Main thing is the money keeps rollin' in, I guess.

Sad to see that quantity > quality. Even more sad that new and promising talents will be drowned without even being recognized.

Excuse my sledge-hammer forwardness, but I'm really sick of all the sugar coating political correctness.

Hello?

"Yes, Renderosity has my permission to use my artwork from my art gallery for promotional use only". Great idea, go for it... go go go! ;o) -Martin

Thanks alot, Doug, somehow I didn't come to the idea to surf to DAZ homepage giggles speeds off to download the darn thing Cheers and a good new year in forward, Martin.

Thanks too for all your help here! I'll try it out once more, and then let's see what happens (to me g). Superb picture, agiel, very atmospheric! Btw. I ordered Vue 4.0 anyways... hope it's worth the money! :)

Thx for the hint, Varian. Well I've tried it out and must say that the textures are now on the model, but sometimes are distorted awfully. Some Deatils don't really look good... there are some "green stripes" around her stomach, for example. I still wonder why the first version of the model (the one with the poser standard textures) worked fine even with .3ds exporting/importing. Could it be possible that the resolution of the new texture is the main problem to all of this? It's a 16001600 texture with 100 dpi. Well after all I guess I'll upgrade to Vue 4.0, as far as I read it can import real Poser files... I'm pretty new to rendering, but it's lots of fun and worth every minute (and money).

Is all of that possible with Vue 3.1, too? I have a model with the standard Poser textures, and importing it to Vue 3.1 was no problem at all. Then, later on while getting better with Poser I made my own textures for this model... but when I imported it to Vue (I used the *.3ds format for exporting the model which worked fine at start) the model was completely "grey". Anyone any clues about what happened, or how I can import my model to Vue without losing the textures?
