    What is tubes for taggers? I thought taggers were people who did grafitti. 

    A tag is a small picture with your name on. They are usually used in mails or something and done just for fun usually in Paint Shop Pro or sometimes in Photoshop or other 2D applications.

    Tubes are pictures with no background (usually png) so you can put them together. Sort of a collage I guess.

    Here is an older one of mine.

    Ooh, I see - thanks for explaining.

  • I'm a writer. I wanted to create images of my characters for my blog, but I have the artistic skills of a bent stick. I downloaded DAZ Studio 4.9 on a whim four days ago, and below is my first rendered image. I'll be refining it, but even this first effort captured the Meralda I see in my head when I write her stories.

  • I originally downloaded DAZ so I could create some nice, clean photorealistic backgrounds I could use as backgrounds of portraits I've taken with my camera. So I bought some sets by Stonemason and Jack Tomalin and was really impressed with what DAZ studio could do. Then I discovered the wide variety of figures available, particularly in the fantasy/sci-fi genres and I started rendering for its own sake because I always loved fantasy illustration. I don't create narrative art, but I do love telling stories within a render just as a street photographer might do when photographing strangers in a crowd.

    All of the above and more...Really cool and imaginative stuff. I like to publish realtime 3d interactive multimedia on the web in WebGL best, but also love video animations and static graphics. I am fascinated with atmospheric and lighting effects and learned alot using DAZ and Poser. So perhaps learning might be the greatest take away for me. For example I saw the movie Tims Vermier last year and must say w/o the 3d rendering experience DAZ and Poser give me, I would never have appreciated it (& life) to the level I do now.

    I use Ds to create figures/poses for export to Cinema 4d for rendering as IRAY is too slow for use in my comic art and if i need any incidental figures for my other artwork ventures - i was contemplating creating figure content for genesis series figures as i started to do with poser M4 / V4 but it seems unessarily complicated to do and i just havent got the time. so until i learn how to ZBrush scuplt (well) i wont be producing content.

    Comics? Animation, Games?

     

    What do you use Daz for?

    Art and storytelling. I got into it through creative writing, so I suppose it's no surprise that my art focuses heavily on the same. LOL I don't do animations or videos or any of that. It's all still images with embedded storylines. Sometimes it functions as a form of self expression or self therapy to work things out of my system, but by and large, it is for art and storytelling. :) Been at it since 2002, doubt I'll stop anytime soon!

    It's good for emptying your bank account...

    I use DAZ for looking at all of the shineys and whining to my hubby "I want this and I want that" occasionally getting something, but never all.  Lurking in the forums and occasionally positing.  Looking at all of the wonderful art created here and then beating myself up about not being any good at anything artistic. 

    Oh, I guess I should put the good or sometimes productive stuff too?  Driving my hubby crazy as I talk about this product/sale or that product/sale/contest.  Buying stuff (mostly PC items), and more recently creating renders to help illustrate the scene or character for the campaign I am running approxiamtely 1/month.  The last render was one of my favorites.

    I have a web-based game where I use DS for illustrations and short animations.

    I also just recently finished my first graphic novel. 1000+ pages... It took a while to render. :) And even more of this is on the way.

    Stress headaches... also known as plugins/code.

    Almost all of my rendering for the past few years in DS has been technical in nature or plugin testing.

    Kendall - you really need to have a bit more fun!  :)  Loosen up and go render something just for the heck of it!

    a not often used plugin for Carrara yes

  • Alley RatAlley Rat Posts: 405

    I use it a lot for genderplay stuff (big buff dudes in stockings, etc). I also have gotten back into using it for sprites for video games. I can either use the renders directly, or paint over them in Paint of Persia when I need an NES-era feel. I user Poser mostly for experimental abstract visuals.

  • I do a lot of RPG's (mostly 7th sea and Pathfinder) and I use DAZ to make character art for it.  Mostly as tents to put on the table in front of me to show who I'm playing.  Sometimes as aides for GM's to suppliment the art in pathfinder scenarios.

    Then there's the two big projects that I keep thinking on but never get around to doing.  One is a webcomic based on a 7th sea campaign we finished recently a year ago.  The other is a slideshow music video of my pathfinder characters in a big battle with a lot of demons.

    Far too much rubbish, tbh.

    ... But I keep trying.

    I use it to make purty pictures laugh

    Actually, I use it to make images I like, and sometimes I get lucky and others like them as well. It's also both a great stress reliever, and at times a great stress inducer.
