i would love to do some more dynamic clothing, I am still an amateur so I post all my items in the freestuff. what kind of clothes are you looking for?

MoeGoofie, you are right, this is very much off topic. If a renderosity-3BAY could give buyers more and better products for their money, and merchants could make more money then I actually think that it is a good idea. But what do I know, I am only a free stuff contributor. :) Meanwhile, how about a search spy and some polls to get some numbers on how many people actually wish to buy a product?

i also think that it would be nice if you merchants could give us some info about how much custom items costs? maybe there is one buyer who is willing to pay $100 for a special item, but you 'know' that you wont be able to sell enough $5-items to make it worth the effort. there should be some kind of "rentacoder" system where buyers can post request and get bids from merchants. this would also make it possible for people to specialize in buying and selling other peoples stuff, taking all the risks and rewards.

I was thinking of some kind of auction or preordering, but I guess it would be much easier for you merchants to just post a list of items you are planning to make. Maybe there could be a poll, such as 'This months most wanted item'. Sure, we would see a lot of items of that kind, but that would also decrease the need for that kind of items and new items could be created next month. It would be sufficient with a list of 10-12 items to vote for. I guess what you want is some kind of "quantified" wishing well, and that is what such a poll would be. Merchants who dont sell at renderosity for a living will still create items just for fun. There are no flaws in this system :) ehhhhrm... You could also have a search spy that lets you know what people are searching for.

thanks for the tip, i tried your tool with 'the girl' from daz. it is a good software, i hope you can release it as version 1.0 some day. :) i was more thinking of small tools that everybody just knows that they need. tools to improve poser, one-click-postwork-tools, that kind of stuff... for instance i would like an application like LiveBallon (except that it should be working...) (http://www.download.com/LiveBalloon/3000-2204-10309387.html?tag=lst-0-3) to create comic strips and such with you images rendered in poser. there must be hundreds of other great ideas floating around just looking for someone to develop them...?
