    Mini 1 were free. All I'm saying folks the Mini #2 gets as many pulls as you have in the RRRR. It's that easy. If you do 6 for RRRR you do 6 for Mini 2, then it would be 7 and so on. So if you pull extra for RRRR you pull the same number for Mini. I drop the increase in Mini. Just match your RRRR pull count.

    Do the images get posted in BOTH contests or just mini?
    Does mini tag numbering restart from 1 or does it match the main RRRR tag numbering?

    Thx for clarifications, and I got rid of the spaceport (which I has a little problem even thinking about ) lol

    That's easy enough! Overthinking, no, that's never something I do, not at all...

    Thanks for the clarification, back to rendering!

    Note: If you do two Minis with Number so and then a second with out doing a RRRR just do #1-2 or #1-3 ect...

    I wish I could say the same!
    So far I've posted #1 to #3 in the main contest
    Then Mini1#1 and Mini1#2 in the mini "Weather" contest
    Then #4 to #8 in the main contest
    I've done a pull for #9 in the main contest (hence 6 items required) but not yet finished the image for that
    Here is my first pull for the Mini2 "Payday" contest (6 items as I understood the latest rules info):
    432 = David Head Morphs
    791 = Dynamic Tunic and Sashes
    1017 = Paul Hair for Genesis and M4
    457 = DMs Dark Shrine
    852 = GIS Project
    323 = Michael 3 Long Beard
    But what do I tag this one with? Is it "Mini2#1" or "Mini2#9" or what? And does the answer to that question depend on whether I've posted this one before I finish #9 in the main contest?
    HELP!!!!!

    OKAY Umm.. good point Just tag the minis as you do them. As long as we can vote for each render I think the tags ANY WAY you want to do it will be fine. And again, Just pull the same number of items for the Mini as you would for RRRR.

    Thanks for the answer, now I have nothing to worry about (except the tiny matter of fitting those mismatched items into anything remotely connected with a Payday!)

    When you put it that way.... ;) These are great "brain boosters" aka when my brain is out of ideas... force it to work with a few random ideas and the ides start coming!

    Tag belovedalia#1

    Pull:
    Cherry
    Mini Art Set
    Add On for Zombie
    Dragoon

    Also used: Hiro 3 tunic (required for Dragoon textures), Jazlyn hair, genesis, Destiny shaders, and pwToon shaders. (btw the zombie add on are mostly blood/gore splatter props... which looked rather more like paint splatters and ended up quite perfect! no zombies needed afterall!)
    SO totally fun :D This is why I like being forced to work with things and get ideas like this ^^

    Title: Paint Brigade

    And er, I'll try the pay day mini contest, so PULL:

    The Maid For Aiko 3 and Aiko Toon
    Lisa's botanicals- cnnamon fern
    KiriTe: Color & Movement
    Jungle Beat for Micah

    Um... for KiriTe i can use the textures but the morphs dont' seem to work in Daz Studio so i hope that is okay. ^^

    So new set revised is:
    The Maid For Aiko 3 and Aiko Toon

    Draw 1
    105 Effortless Cool for Genesis Male
    24 Victoria 6 Pro Bundle
    78 Just Real JeanZ for Genesis JeanZ

    I joined this site over a year ago when I first downloaded DAZ Studio software, but I didn't have time then to do anything with it. Now I do have some time, but I'm basically a new user.

    The concept of choosing random items for a scene is right up my alley. So here are my four random item picks:

    1314 - Mystical Touch
    56 - Aiko 3.0 Body Armor
    582 - Easy Shadows
    1300 - Morphing Fantasy Dress for Genesis

    Okay, I've already got an idea for that scene. Will see how it turns out.

    Quick newbie question: It looks like everyone lists all the extra items they use in their renders, so I'll try to keep track of that. I've not been too good at it so far. When I finished a render recently, I was trying to remember everything I used in the scene, and wasn't quite sure I did successfully. Is there some way in DAZ Studio 4.6 to see a list of all the products you've used in a scene, or do you have to manually track the products you use?

    Welcome RRRR, the most fun you can have with your DAZ content!

    To figure out what I've uses I look in the Scene tab. It is easy to miss some things if the get parented to other items and don't show unless you expand the tree. That also doesn't show you materials and shaders, so I try to remember those by looking at my scene. I'm sure I miss some most times. It is not required to list everything, but it is interesting to look at the lists when people take time to do it.
