I'm starting with a pose pack of 16 poses (with some expressions) for Lady Littlefox's Gumdrops characters. Gumdrops Candy the Base, as well as others LLF has created from that base, are available in the DAZ store. I love working with Gumdrops and wanted to make some starting poses for myself and thought I'd turn it into a little pack. The set also includes options to reset expression only, pose only, and pose and expression.
Download at Renderhub, or the attached files here. I've included a zip file and an installer file here. If all goes to plan, it should add Smart Content metadata too.
Curiosity isn't a bad thing, so I went to check out and listen to your musical, textual, and video artwork. Although you use a lot (maybe a bit too much) of audio effects on your voice, at least there's no ugly autotune. The visuals are magical.
I discovered a world full of poetry and emotion.
So thank you, and keep up the magnificent work!
I'm a super curious person myself, so I'd never say curiosity is a bad thing!
I appreciate you taking the time to check out those songs and leaving me a comment here. Thank you for the lovely compliments. 
I was mucking around making an HDRI for some golden backlights for a render, and ended up making a few more to fill out a little freebie pack. Nothing inspired, but maybe it's useful to someone.
It's a pack of 7 HDRI environment presets that provide color backlighting. (In the Environment settings, Dome Y rotation 45 will give a more pronounced rim lighting on the left if that's more to taste.) The zip file can be downloaded on Renderhub only, as it seems too big to attach here. I have attached an installer file here to work with the zip file if anyone prefers to install that way. There should be Smart Content metadata included. The presets will be in Light Presets > SapphireBlue > HDRI Color Backlights.
(P.S. The promo images use the environment backdrop set to black to show the colors more starkly, and only use the HDRI for lighting with the default preset values.)
Thank you very much!
You're welcome rosseliani!

Did a render last night, with the scene only lit with the gold backlight HDRI from the pack. No postwork except for the watermark.

Used your HDRI backlights in this render:

Finally decided to venture into Blender and here's my first project: a pair of flower earrings for G8/8.1F and G9. The earrings come with 2 material presets for the setting (silver and gold), and 8 for the gemstone colors. You can further change these colors by changing the base color value for the earring setting, and the glossy color value for the earring gemstone in DAZ Studio's Surfaces tab. The included readme file also has these details.
The accessories and material presets will be in:
People > Genesis 8 Female > Accessories > SapphireBlue > Flower Earrings
And People > Genesis 9 > Accessories > SapphireBlue > Flower Earrings
Download at Renderhub, or use the attached files here. I've included a zip file and an installer file here. The dsa installer file should add Smart Content metadata too if you choose to use it. (I should try it out one of these days by test installing it on another device maybe). Let me know if there are any issues or any suggestions. (First promo is with G8.1, second with G9.)
Nice earrings!
