@wolfie: I for my part am not hurt, in fact I understand your reasons. But as odf said: This figure is not meant as a competiting product to any commercial figure. In fact it is far more, you just have to look into the readme:

derivative work, you must, according to the license (see below),
acknowledge me as the original creator of the figure, but you do not
have to ask for my permission.

(...)

*    * Waiver — Any of the above conditions can be waived if you get*
*      permission from the copyright holder.*

Do you get the point? If you, for instance, have an idea how... let's say the eyes could be made more advanced by creating a nictating membrane for Antonia-Cat and you create this membrane from the eye's geometry itself you do not have to find a way to seperate it from the eye and build a nifty little injector (or create a completely new eye). It is no problem if there geometry of the original eye in your file! (Please!!! If I understood something wrong correct me, odf!).

That's the deal - and the other part of the deal is that Antonia now is in the hands of the community and odf does not have to act like a store who has to offer bugfixes or fullfill wishes. We are all still here. We are of course open for suggestions. It is natural that now, where the stable version is available people come up with ideas for add-ons and advanced features. And I very much hope that neither odf nor we who created our bits and pieces to make her as complete as possible are left alone with those wishes. In fact I was hoping a lot that things happen that I already see: People picking Antonia up and creating what they would like to see for her. Maybe the one or other even dares to do things he never did before because Antonia is free of charge and so he or she doesn't have to spend money for his experiments.

See: I never ever touched poses beside one time and the result looked like a broken marionette - the only thing I ever tried again was adjusting fingers and feet. The I got Antonia and I got the permission to use Schlabber's poses as a starting point. And something happened: I was able to tweak and twist these poses to match Antonia, I even created my own impressions of these poses, turned fighters into dancers and so on. And I began to get an idea of the power such a free "tool" has.

 

I'm not always right, but my mistakes are more interesting!

And I am not strange, I am Limited Edition!
