    Sigh, ... the account page, nice to visit but really ...

    okay ... no linkies to commercial pages ... not even pages selling manuals for D/S.

    We can still though, afaik, reference the store and/or name of the product.

    So thank you to the mystery person ... 'cause no I hadn't seen the Ship Elements B1 sold over at R.

    If they don't want us talking about other sites, they should offer the product here then. >:(

    Lets be honest here, if they sold it here, it would be a DAZ exclusive item and every singe one of you Poser users would be in the dark. It's a nasty trend I'm seeing grow here. And why a lot of the products are being taken to other sites. (But how do we get the word out this is something we would like to see changed. In this thread alone we are pretty much equal type users and look to share and help each other. Hell if you think about this, this thread had taken on a life of it's own, it's mentioned at almost ever single scifi or 3D render product or discussion site! We are bringing people in, and in a indirect route we are advertising their products here.

    That set would of been a fantastic addition to this group, too bad it wasn't a freebie!

    nuff said, if discussed further I suspect more repercussions.

    (though thankyou for pointing it out. Bought it as soon as I saw the DAZ forum email came in.)

    As always, I wonder how hard it is to use in DAZ Studio? And/or with Reality in either Poser or DS?

    Really? Do people other than us talk about us? That's cool! ...Well, I hope it's cool. They could be talking about how awful we are or something, I guess....

    Doing a cross over of my written works and obvious Fanfiction (Effect Series and Star trek).

    Captain Picard meets Empress Seraphina of the Mantori Empire.

    Thank you goes to Mylochka for the season 1 uniform!

    Hallway set ...... can't say due to recent deletion's by moderators of another's post. But ya'll smart, you know where this awesome Trek look-a-like hallway set came from.and for once it wasn't mine!

    That's Rduda's hallway set, isn't it?

    I ran into the same trouble when trying to interest people at new stuff brought out by Xurge, especially for Genesis (with collab from Hellfish studios). My post was removed in a heartbeat, despite the fact that it is clothing for their genesis platform. This is really starting to be a pain in the rear...

    I am aware that this trend started at Rendo, who categorically removed any posts linking to outside sites, but that doesn't mean they have to follow this ridiculous example on these forums.

    Gradually, due to the heavy censoring, a fanbased group no longer can share outside links, unless they are freebie links. This worries me, as we might as well take things to a board we run ourselves, instead of sticking around here and get clouted over the head for what used to be considered normal.

    The Commons
    Here is where you may feel free to discuss anything related to DAZ 3D or the 3d / digital art world. Here you can talk about the latest DAZ 3D product, or any other ideas and suggestions you might have with all of your fellow community members.

    .... Not valid anymore

    I think that some people need to remove a stick and start listening to customers, instead of making their community pay for the actions of another website.

    We do not remove links when they are posted as a response to a question about finding such and such an item. We do however remove links to Off site Commercial items when they are posted as an unsolicited link, because this is judged to be an ad for the item. It is a very fine line we have to walk, and unfortunately at times it will upset some people.

    In regards to the hallway, it belongs to a fine and well respected german 3D artist. Not even sure I can post this anymore, but if you go to my art gallery I've given the name and link to whom it is. here is my link http://www.pdsmith.deviantart.com

    Chohole, - you have a PM!

    So let me get this straight, if we post a render in this thread, listing what we used, it's ok?

  • PDSmithPDSmith Posts: 712
    edited December 1969

    I'd like to say yes, but given the ambiguty of the TOS when it references that sort of thing.

    Dont.

    Post the freebies you used, post the settings you used. Just stear clear of posting purchased products, some of the newer products coming out are unavailable to other 3D programs.

    DAZ has been gracious to allow this thread. Let's not out-welcome it's stay.

    It's founder Rduda was onto something 'EPICALLY HUGE', we need to keep it going.

    This is a deplorable and dark subject to be brought up here to take this thread. PM me here or note me over at DA if you want to further discuss it.

    BACK ON TRACK PEOPLE

    Start showing those images, freebies and ideas. that's what the 3D community expect from this thread.

    SUPPORT OF OUR FAVOURITE HOBBY AND LOVE OF A SHOW THAT BROUGHT US ALL TIMLESS ENJOYMENT.

    If someone posts "Were can I get xyz" you can post a link to qualifying products. If you say "Look what I found" then the link is not permitted. You can however tell the name of the pack and where it was being sold.

    Conference rooms too please ... 7 or 8 should do.

    And uniforms or ideas for ... I know some are sold here in the store, except for a couple, have those ...


    And don't anybody dare tell me to look at the list at the start of these threads.

    And of course if anybody expects me to buy that which should be free ... note that that kinda ticks me off too.

    OK, I went in and fixed it can can someone please tell me why was the name of our thread been changed? The whole point of our title is to mirror in some was the name of a Star Trek movie or TV show. I added back ": In a Runtime Darkly!"

    Possibly happened when we merged posts back in to it, not certain why though, shouldn't have changed the thread title.

    Texture success story ... Finally found a way to "paint a picture on a curve".
    As in take a length of straight braid and "paint" it on a curved line [i.e. following a shirt's cuff line].

    Posted a sample if anybody's interested. For the Defiant Tunic for Genesis. Mind you if you can get it to fit on another template you wish to use, be my guest.
