    There are two different products in the store that will auto convert G2 poses to G3 but none that I know of that go the other direction, unfortunately.

    Just to respond to some of the questions here (as well as to explain the reasoning behind it), I wanted to chime in. 

    For the past several years we have given away free items for the holidays.  The number of items submitted however, declines each year, and we really struggle to come up with enough items to make it viable.  Add to that the fact that, as free items, we indicated on them that since they were free, we did not fully test them and did not offer support for them.  In spite of making this clear, many customers who got them for free and then contacted support for help with them, got really upset that we did not support them.

    So, what was intended as good will actually made a lot of people angry with us.  Add to that the fact that we simply don't get very many of these items submitted, and it becomes very difficult to manage.

    So, while I know many may have enjoyed the free items in the past, we wanted to make sure that:

    - We had enough items

    - The items were of a quality that we are proud to have in the store

    - The items are of a quality that people appreciate, and don't end up upset about

    That is exactly why last year we began to offer other exciting deals during the holidays (very, very big name new items for 75% off.)  You'll be seeing some of that this year as well.  You will also be seeing a fair number of "free if you buy" new items this year that are a step above the types of freebies you have seen in the past.  Plus, we've got a few other Holiday Miracles up our sleeves ;)

     

    The problem is daz_Steve is that "free if you buy" is not free. you have to have a monetary payout to get it, even if it states you are buying something else as a qualifier still doesn't make it free. That is like saying "Hey here is a Customer appreciation gift, but you need to buy something in the store to get it. I appreciate the work the PA's do and I thank all those that do give out truly free freebies, but I think I will pass on the corperate idea of freebie.

    Merry Christmas all.

    As someone who spends way too much money on DAZ contents, my actual problem with BOGOF thing is that not only do you have to buy one of the new release items, but NOW you have to buy from a specific vendor's store.  What IF for some reason, I happen to own all of Fisty & Darc's items already (I don't, but it's a hypothetical question), then that means I don't get the Dainty earrings for free...I would have bo buy it, and that would just not be right.  There were a couple of items given away totally free last week, sadly, I bought those when they came out, so I was not able to consider myself one of the "lucky"ones  and I was "less" thankful to DAZ for that bit :-), but well, c'est la vie.    Normally, I don't voice out my unhappiness, just maybe once a year, but well, I wanted to put my 2 cents into this issue.  

    Freebie creators are great.  Sometimes they do such great work that I sometimes wonder why they don't sell their stuff.

    Some like making the stuff but don't like the sometimes "revision hell" that comes with selling ;).

    yes I have no issue buying the freebie if its something I want.

    again most this year are Genesis 3 and not wanted enough to buy and convert though I did look at the pretty earings twice and may scrounge for coins behind the couch yet

    I almost forgot to post thanks to Fisty and Darc and DAZ 3D for this very nice leotard. I also wanted to say thanks to Divamakeup for the G2 expressions. I will definitely put those to use as sticking with my G2 figures. I auto G3 clothing to G2 so all will definitely be used. smiley.  ++Special thanks for making a G2 and G3 version of the earring set.kiss

    Not sure what sale is what at this point, kind of lost.  Thanks for the Cookies Bluebird 3d, and thanks for the mage-like Iray shaders DG.

    What mage-like Iray shaders?  Did I miss something?

    It was a good price after adding some other stuff from her store to the cart.

    No idea how long that will last, there was an email about it a few days ago.

    and the cookies

    I think the cookies is a PC+ thing, possibly?

    I am late, but I want to thank Fisty & Darc for this - imo - best leotard ever! Another thank you to Divamakeup for her wonderful G2F expressions, and to Bluebird 3d for those lovely, lovely Christmas cookies and Yuletide Ornaments! smiley

    OK, I'm not sure, and I don't have any coffee-shop-coffee funds left to try it. Is that B1-G1 thing over?
