Yeah, I started with Vicky 1 and went up to Vicky 4.2.   The real shame is all the content creators that I used to buy from are only doing stuff for Daz and their models now.

The textures are in another runtime, but the runtime is linked.   It's not a groundbreaking problem, just something I am trying to figure out.

Thank you for the responses.  

I'm in Boynton Beach..it's in the middle of west palm and boca.

For me, it's all about the finished product. I compare art to music. A good recording will sound 10x better if it is mixed properly, just like an image will look better if it is postworked. Just my opinion.

Take the plunge, jump in..LOL!! I was in the same boat as you, but almost a year ago I said what the hell, why not. It's always a little nerve racking when you post an image. The other's left some good advice, I say give it a try.

I'm no pro, and there are plenty of others around here that could tell you, but I really like Vue 5. It imports full poser scenes and has many different and better lighting options. The price is pretty good too.

I know how you feel!! I just got over Hurricane Frances. We were without power for a week, and I'm still cleaning up.

It seems that most of the stolen art is from one person. If you go to the 3d art gallery and just start going through it, you can see where it says "sent by." It's the same person......Khext. I have seen other images from Paintgirl, lunaris, and luciferino.

I see a few images in the gallery of this site that are stolen. One by PMT Monster, and another by eferrier.

WOW!! Looks Fantastic!! Wish I had the space to host it for you. Nice work.

I feel so bad!! May his soul rest in peace....His free stuff was some of the best around...Very sad news.....

I have been a member here for over 3 years. Only recently have I started posting my own work, and commenting on others. I find most of the work in the top 20 to be excellent pieces of art. Also, with such growth over the last year or so for this site, you are going to have all kinds of different skill levels posting. I welcome all kinds of comments for my stuff, good or bad. They help me to improve. Most of my stuff is of the Pin-up variety, but that is what I love to do. I create my art for myself!! Also, some other post stated that Pin-up art really didn't take talent and so forth.. I do not agree with that. You can see in my Gallery that a lot of work goes into my images.... Just my thoughts on this topic.

Awesome tip SWAMP!! Just deleted that file, and now my libraries are 5x faster...Thanks for the tip!!

There is a way, or at least how I do it. Save the image as a Tiff file, than in photoshop you can strip away the background. It just leaves whatever you rendered.
