This has been a peeve of mine for months now and I reached overload tonight. As someone stated in another thread, hardly any of the Vendors actually use the Promo Credits tab. I'd like to see it be required for Vendors to state what version of Poser they used for their promo images. If Poser Pro 2012 or 2014, did they use GC? Did they use IDL? Environment Sphere? Are they still using IBL? If they used lights available in the Marketplace, then put a credit to them. I know that a few Vendors will state that their characters will look different under different lighting conditions, but I don't see why they can't give the aforementioned information about their promos. Also I've seen several threads lately where someone is looking for a hair model used in various promos. So I just don't see why its so hard to have Vendors provide this information on the Promo Credits tab.
Thanx for listening! I don't mean to rant, but this just has been bothering me for a while. I see a good promo thumbnail. I click on it. I'm interested, but I want to know this information (particularly about lights), and the Vendors say nothing about it. This is also bugs me about gallery images as well. Not crediting lighting used and the version of Poser used.
