    Luci #4 - Fantastic idea, great render, so well executed (or was that excavated), and Yes- soon we need to add another rule as we have a Poser/Carrara/DS rule that if you pull an item only usable in another program than the one you wanna use you can repull. Might add that for IRay as well, or 3DL, if you decide to use one render engine and pulls cameras or shaders for the other, but not this round :P

    OK, groan, I put the dysfunctional light sets and cameras back in my database and pulled. And for the the third time I have a 3Delight light (or thing requiring one.) But I will be more creative this time. ;-P

    Shouldn't we be allowed to purge our runtimes of whatever we don't want to use anymore? I'm talking about BEFORE we draw our items. For example, if I don't want to use generation 4 anymore, can't I uninstall it and remove it from my RRRR list, too? Is Luci not allowed to remove products that she doesn't want to use anymore? I need a rule clarification, please.

    Purging I think we must allow, as "you just don't have to add them in the first place", but repulling once pulled not in this race, so yes, Luci can purge the list before the pull. After this current pull I think I need to remove Gen 2 & 3 stuff that I never use, lol

    Thanks for the clarification. It makes sense. :-)
    We will have more fun if we purge stuff we never want to see again!

    I enjoy finding a use for all that old millennium man and woman stuff, and rediscovering items that I forgot that I had. But I'm glad those of you who have moved on can prune your lists. RRRR should be fun, not annoying.

    Long live - Product Page Not Found. ;-)

    Exactly! Everyone should have fun. My example of purging V4/M4 was hypothetical. I haven't decided yet whether to do that. I will purge some things I never use or want to use again, like some light sets or presets that I was never happy with, and things that quit working in new DS releases.

    I must go back and review all those amazing entries in detail, but I must say a few things first:
    1) My toilet broke again.
    2) I need a new GPU.
    3) POOFY PANTS!

    Carry on!

    "Poofy pants"!?

    There's a fart joke in there somewhere, but I don't think I even want to look for it!

    ...I did that of all software and plugins, as well as Carrara content (not that up to speed with it yet). Removed Bryce for the time being too as the bridge doesn't work with the General Release and the Beta has been creating other "issues".

    I promised I'd look at them all!!

    Diomede #1, Hippo Dentistry: The hippo looks so happy!! And I love the fact that the dentist rides a sea horse, lol!
    Totte #1, Roadpainter’s Paintbrush: BWAHAHAHA!! I have no words. I seriously am struck speechless by the amazingless of this idea. A new classic, for sure!
    Totte #2, Judge at the TCT (Timeless Crime Tribunal): He does not look remorseful and I believe he might, indeed, have bragged about it. Off with his head!
    luci45 #1, The Underground Circus Talent Recruiter: That is the perfect combination of utterly ridiculous and absolutley beautiful! It's got such amazing color and detail -- so rich. And really, really bizarre. To me, that spells perfection! I have no idea how you manage it...
    luci45 #2, The Unusual Pet Therapist: LOL! So, I'm wondering... What, exactly, is trying to jump out of that fishbowl, and what, exactly, is sneezing out the bars of its electromagnetically-sealed cage? Because I sense a LOT of issues in that waiting room!
    MorganRLewis #1,Calendar Girls: Tee-hee!! Sounds like the WORST modeling job ever! I really hope poor Miss August isn't doomed to her birthday suit... though, the director's choice of clothing isn't really much better!
    Totte #3, Warhorse SPA therapist: Because even horses need knee-hab! I'd worry about the barding getting rusty, though!
    emsim #1, Rodent Real Estate Agent: Awwww!! That's adorable -- but only because they arent ACTUAL rodents moving into MY house. Because that would just be terible. LOVE how you used the house!
    luci45#3, The BioCleanse Attendant: Holy SCENE, Batman!!! My GPU just threw up a little in its mouth at the thought of rendering all that. It's sublime! And...Poofy Pants Descendant!!! Win!!! Must say, though, I'm not sure I want to see what everyone looks like once they've been Biocleansed.
    Diomede #1, Transformers Marching Rock Band: I wonder how long they had to practice to keep from falling off while marching? Because, if they fall off... ouch!
    zawarkal#01, Portal Repairman: Every render should have an Oompah Loompah!! And yes, it does appear to be stuck on "Fear." Eeek! Love the colors, btw!
    Linwelly # 1, Captain Nemo’s Apprentice:
    Lol!! It's like "Jules Verne meets Simon Cowell"!! Love it! Fantastic amount of detail in this!
    MorganRLewis #2, Gauntlet Hut: Mmmmm... Donuts... On the bright side, there's no chance of getting powdered sugar on your new gauntlets since, well... there are no new gauntlets to buy!
    barbult #1, Loveboat Launcher: LOL!! Omg, this is awesome!!! Absolute genius with the candy boxes! It's good to see Muck is gainfully employed (at least for the moment!) The up-ended boat and passenger are absolutely perfect!
    Linwelly # 2, teacher for old style assassinations:
    Wow, now THERE is someone I wouldn't want to meet in the dark!! Or, um, in broad daylight! Very clever, lol.
    Totte #4, Undead Psychotherapist at the asylum graveyard: OMG, Love it!! I'm not sure, but I think the un-guy with the table has some anger issues. This reminds me of some high school students I once taught...
    MelanieL#1, Hairdresser to the Stars: You have such a gift for showing expression with your poses! I giggled out loud at the traumatized girl in the background. Remind me to stay FAR away from that guy!

    @Morgan R Lewis - thanks for your comments. Interesting about the instancing and children on your doughnuts/trays/shelves.
    @Karibou #1 - what is it with you and toilets?! It seems to help the creativity at least - another nice render, I love Bianca's slightly fed-up expression
    @Linwelly - thanks for your comments
    @Karibou #2 (see what I mean about creativity?) - love it, and so quick too! And thanks for your comments on my puny single entry so far!
    On the subject of list pruning, I may well remove Gen 1/2 next time round because I have virtually no clothes for them so pulling one of them is a bit of a TOS minefield.

    I purged all my AoA lights and the Atmospheric camera because I was so frustrated with them on the last pull. Then I thought about it and no, I didn't want to get rid of them forever, which I agree should be the standard. So I put them back and pulled the Advanced Ambient Light. Aargh! So another 3Delight, but that is OK as it will be an interior and Iray takes forever on those, almost like Reality.

    diomede64 - I enjoy pulling old figures too. They are a pain to work with sometimes but I just can't throw them out.

    Ken, Poofy Pants is Sir Mandrake Boland - http://lucia45.deviantart.com/art/Sir-Mandrake-322992160. (No farting was involved.)

    Kyoto Kid - Very soon...

    Karibous, I'm glad to see you here so soon. And thanks for the very nice comments.

    Edit: Uh Oh, I only drew 6 and I'm supposed to have 3 LBs. I'll draw one more and add it to the list above. OK, Updated. I now have 7 items.

    @Totte number ?? (and you didn't add it to the Entries thread by the way) - I love your bling-polisher idea, nice render too
    @Luci45 #5 (and yours isn't in the Entries threads either) - hey, that's my friend's father, he did a lot of buying and selling (never out of the auction house)! Nice idea, nice render, cluttered house!
    @Linwelly #3 - ooh, that sounds like a risky place to work! Clever use of the egg.
