Lately, I'd say in the past few months, I've noticed a lot of products coming out on several different sites (including DAZ and RMP) with textures that just aren't that good. They either lack detail, or they're muddled, or they simply look like some kind of photoshop fill bucket pattern. Now I'm merely a hobby artist and have only been able to make the most rudimentary of textures, but when I first started using poser, I was met with texture makers like Stonemason, Uzilite, Davo, Eloroncedark, As Shamin, Sanctum Art, (hope he comes back) and others. Now, where it used to seem like textures of the quality these artists make were the rule, their quality appears to be the exception. It's kind of disappointing because I think one fact that can truly make or break a poser product are the textures (the other is probably mesh detail). Now I recognize that even the most rudimentary poser product takes a lot of time, work, and talent to produce. Lately, they just don't seem to be as good as they used to be...
