Hi everyone,
I need your help in locating various Poser figures, textures, props, etc. to replenish my Poser Runtime. Let me tell you what happened to me. On September 24, 2010, I was wrongfully evicted from my home in Kansas and lost everything, including my beloved pets, my vehicles, family heirlooms, and all of my Macintosh computers, peripherals and software, including Poser 7, Vue, Photoshop CS3 and much more, including thirty years’ worth of Hayseed cartoons, who was the star of my children’s book, “Hayseed’s First Race”.

My main graphics workstation, my Power Mac G5 tower, had Poser 7 loaded on it with years and hundreds of dollars’ worth of Poser figures, textures, props, scenes, etc. from Poser 4 on up. I’ve been homeless since then and am now only beginning to get back into digital graphics with a refurbished Intel Mac Mini, G4 Powerbook and Poser Pro 2012, as well as Adobe CS3 Web Premium.

I’m still emotionally, mentally and physically traumatized over what happened to me and need your help in locating as many of my favorites as possible. I know I can recover what I bought through my account here at RuntimeDNA as well as the ones at Renderosity and DAZ3D but locating the many freebie items is going to be daunting and that’s where I need your help. For starters, one of my favorite props is the ‘Pose-Cola’ soda can which I used in a number of renders, and here’s the link to one of those images featuring it:

I also want to find this wrought iron bed I used in the following render, as well as the table next to the bed. I remember I got the table from a German website that also had some great indoor plants available for download. Here’s the link to my image:

I also had some fantastically detailed cars that I got from a Japanese website; I remember starting a discussion about cars in the old DAZ forum, but of course the old forum with all of its threads are gone—unless DAZ had the foresight to archive them all.

Obviously, I’ll never be able to recover everything but I still hope to get back a large measure of what was lost. I will come back and post more items I’m looking for as I’m able to recall them. Many thanks from the bottom of my heart and God bless! Sally aka Anim8dtoon
