I chose to just not install the DIM update after reading the note about feature removal in the readme.
Where was this note? I didn't know there was a place to read notes. I saw it in DIM and downloaded it without thinking it might remove something. (Not that I care about stock nipple apply/remove dufs.)
I've picked up a few items - mainly GT items. There are great deals to be had on artist store items - but I already bought everything in the Daz store. (OK, not ... everything, but you know what I mean.) I'm in need of a sale that includes wishlist items that are still "New" which, as I recall, hasn't really been a thing with the PA sale in the past either.
I'm signed on for G9, but I mainly need hair and attire for male characters, for stories set in historic/retro settings, so pickings are slim for me.
I feel your pain. The number of vendors who make male clothing has become limited enough, but historically accurate clothes for either sex are just as hard to find. Heck, "historically accurate" anything that's not an ancient castle, tavern, or something to do with vikings, priates, or ancient Greece or Rome often means going back to assets that were made 10 years ago, and even contemporary clotihing goes through that weird DAZ filter where every other male outfit is either wearing shorts, a skintight bodysuit, or lacking a shirt. I mean, I get that the probability is that around 80% of what's done with DAZ at this point must be pin-up type work given what seems to sell, and I know that in the real world only 17% of the live fashion models are male, but in the real world the discrepency isn't nearly as extreme, with adult female clothing taking up a little over 50% of the market, adult male clothing taking up about 30% and the rest going to chldren.

The note is in the product's online readme file. You can access it easily from DIM by clicking on the little circled i on the product update line in DIM. Daz often doesn't bother to update the readme to show what changed. In this case, they did.

I thought you were talking about some announcement source. I didn't even think to look at the readme when I saw there was an update.
Honestly, what's the point of removing the DUFs from the MB Daniella character when it only acts like a shortcut to the nipple morph?
I checked some Magic Brush teen characters and it's inconsistent. Either you're missing the navel, nipple or both DUFs.
It's not like you can't apply nipples and navels from the basic anatomy.
If the shop pulled textures or gen morphs from the product I'd assume it's more for liability reasons. If end users add their own, that's on the end users, but if they're officially sold together it's probably hazier. Magic Brush has some cool characters and great clothing designs, but many dubiously youthful faces - curators probably made the right call to err on the side of caution. Though the bundled clothing has reveal morphs so whoknows.

For those who passed on the MB Daniella bundle because of age-related concerns (and are willing to pay more in a potential Golden Ticket catch-up), there was an update to the character part of it: 2026-09-21 updated product to remove age-inappropriate materials and morph shapign preset
Where did the bold text come from? It looks like something you pasted from somewhere else. I'm curious where.
Product's Readme page. Clicking (i) icon in DIM brings you to the product's Readme page on Daz. When there's an update, sometimes they list changes with the date (sometimes they don't).
Today, two other products (Lights Manager and Scene Optimizer got updates, and they were for Daz 6 compatibility). I'm guessing there's more, I just don't own them.
I had a big cartload earlier and was ready to check out, then I came back after brewing some coffee and grabbing a tasty snack (apple turnover with a little vanilla ice cream) and the prices tripled. oh well. dumped the cart, money saved. if i wait long enough everything winds up in the outlet store or quick grab anyway.
I figured there was a pricing glitch when I saw how big the discounts were on the FA selection right after changeover. This happens sometimes.

Early this morning I was seeing 80% Off stickers on lots of things, which didn't seem to have that effect in the cart, so not sure what was up. Today's multi-layered multi-category couponless wishlist Stack Up promotion on top of the usual Golden Ticket promotion seems pretty ideal for shenanigans.
I've seen a couple of days recently in which deals like what I saw right after Daz midnight stuck around all day but yeah, the prices of items in my cart from last night did adjust upward by the morning. The discounts dropped just a notch - I might still pick up a few things.

For less than an hour I would say, yersterday discount were applied on top of today's discount (yesterday tile was still visible on the front page), so instead of having a 55% base discount, the most recent selection had two 55% discount applied together (which is close to a 80% total discount) while two 65% discounts is close to a 88% discount and the double 80% discount to a 96% discount.
Then, someone at Daz disabled yesterday offers so for a time but before the cache update was done, the shop still showed the wrong discount while the cart showed the intended one (tthe cart is never cached so will always pull the most up-to-date price).

Ooh, that makes sense. Glitch sales like that are awesome from a shoppers' pov but they must be rough on the PAs. I've imagined someday making stuff for the store and the thought of it selling for 96% off, and splitting half of the last 4% with the shop, and a third of that half with the tax man, is unfortunately a bit off putting. :P

I own most of mal3imagery's products, and while their products are usually excellent, they have released exactly one business suit, which is for Genesis 8/8.1 and was released back in 2022, . They have not released any business clothes for Genesis 9, and have released a grand total of 5 male casual outfits, though it looks like more since many of those have been released in seperate G8 and G9 version with seperate texture sets. They're a great vendor in terms of quallity, but when one compares their output to the multiple vendors who release a new lingerie outfit every week and have catalogs of hundreds of them, it only serves to demonstrate how weirdly imbalanced the DAZ store has become.

Switch to Source and remove the extra blocckquotes.
Frankly, I find the child figures with makeup options far more disturbing
And yet there's an entire multi-billion dollar industry devoted to exactly that now, with national TV shows and both child and stage mom "celebrities." People are weird.

I was referring mostly to Quadraw321's child characters. Some of them have appropriate child "face paints": bright colors in floral and animal designs. But others are far more adult-styled with night-out eye shadows and eye liners.
Thankfully none of them are that Tammy Faye Baker wannabe beauty queen stuff, which is what cybersox I believe was referring to.

It's not like you can't apply nipples and navels from the basic anatomy.do DAZ Boy kids have nipples? I know I can look but since I rarely render kids and always clothed, I honestly never thought about it
it is rather weird TBH, the fact men can show nipples but women can't is weirder
they used to in the past in the wicked old days when feeding babies
yet squeezing cow nipples and drinking the milk is normal
people are weird
