If all goes to plan.

Right! I've had some chill time and it's now time to get back into the creative world. lol

I've got a huge list of things I want to try and complete so I'm going to try and prioritise my priorities. lol, did that make sense?

first big job is to set up the new website, I have the web space, I have the tools & I even have an on line store! only problem is there's absolutely nothing in my store and I desperately need inspiration to kick start the design. so Photoshop and Dreamweaver will be getting a serious hammering over the next couple of weeks!

Secondly, I want to get back onto the modelling / mesh building to give Poser a serious dose of Goth / industrial attitude.

After that, I'll just see what bolts of inspiration arrive.

If any body has any ideas or suggestions for the web desing I'd love to hear them!

until next time. lol

Hey Peeps!

I'm back from the dark world that is work. lol

Been having a seriously busy time but things are starting to look all rosy again.

Hoping to catch up with all the messages and devs very soon... promise!

Hope all is well.

There isn't enough of it!

Been real busy lately and It feels like I have enough things going on to keep me busy 25 hours a day! lol.

There's obviously work, (we all need to pay the bills), then when I do manage to break free from the madness that is work I end up with another 101 things that need doing, people to see & friends to verbally abuse.

I also have a chunk of cyber space with an idle website sitting on it so I'm hoping to set up a brand new sparkly website to promote my work, (eventually!) there's also the industrial / goth props & bits 'n' pieces I'm determined to get finished.

I think I could do with taking a few days off work and giving myself a good sorting out!

...

I've been working on another batch of poser props that I'm hoping to get uploaded some time over the next day or so & a little bit of art work to go with it... truth of the matter is that I've spent so long working on the props that I've kinda lost the will to live and my inspiration has fallen through the floor!

I think I'm desperately in need of a creative boom and less of the trauma that is 3D modelling and wall banging headaches!

Random thought... Can you believe it's February already!

It's valentines in a few days, then easter.... then we'll be thinking about Christmas Shopping! ... Again!!

Marvellous !!

...

Just had a quick look at Daz3d's 'Daz Studio' software.

I've just tested my Poser ready props in Daz studio and they look terrible!

I've never really used Daz studio before so maybe I'm missing something or doing something wrong...

When I made and textured the props ready for poser, the model, texture and bump map work fine but for some reason, unknown to me, Daz Studio smooths and rounds the edges of the model and doesn't render the bump map??

So apologies to those of you using daz studio as the props just don't seem to translate very well at all!

I'm by no means a master when it comes to 3D mesh / models and textures so maybe some of the more experienced daz studio users can shed some light on this issue?
