I'm sensing a long thread string to this one, but hopefully quite informative. :) And here's the deal: I'm interested in buying some Poser items from the RO/Daz store. There are some excellent stuff in the freebee world, but I've been trying to step up my work lately, and what I have isn't completely meeting my needs. And let me just say beforehand that I'm not out to get all Home Shopping Networked and buy everything. :) So this is what I ask of all of you: what do you think is the best of whats around? Now, it doesn't matter whether its a texture, a prop, a hair piece, a character, a pose, etc. It doesn't matter what my artist creative medium is. Nothing matters in this little inquiry but your opinion. But in your opinion, they have to be the absolute best. So go ahead, reply with your faves from across the spectrum of items. It's okay, you can have more than one for each category. I'd be startled if you didnt have more than one. Again, it doesn't matter what it is, just spit em all out. Now don't say it, "one man's trash is another man's prize". I know. But I'm not interested in your trash, just your opinion of the prize. I'd simply take everything everyone says and check it out for myself, to make my own judgements, and maybe getting a little (more) inspiration as I go. Though to get the ball rolling some, I will say that hair pieces and Vicky/Micheal body textures are at the top of the list; but please (pretty please?) dont focus on just that. A nude character with hair doesnt always make up the whole image. IMHO, there has to be a purpose, a strength in it. Besides, my boss would get pissed. :) Okay quick segue: I have a great love (and I suppose a gift) for photography. My cubicle is literally filled with photos that I've taken. I have a 10'x12' space that is 5' high (3 of that 5 has been "taken over"). Doing the math that means that 56 feet of space is being used. It's gotten to the point where co-workers stop in to see if I've added anything recently, not to see me. :) I know, I know, "why the hell is he telling us this?" Simply stated, I'm reaching a low spot in photographical inspiration. But not in Poser. I have many ideas just waiting to be done. In photography, all you need is your trusty camera and the occasional tripod. But Poser requires something a little more. So there it is. The challenge and the reason why. So.... anybody got any ideas? ;D a3-ro2.gif PS- does anyone like the new name logo or prefer the old one? Thanks.
