Description
Here's a great big THANK YOU from the Girls and me to Renderosity for reinstating the gallery ebots!! It's sooooo good to see them back! Now all I need to do is get caught up on comments....again! LOL
I've been on a bit of a hiatus for a few weeks, as things here have been stupid crazy (as opposed to just normal crazy...). I've been in kind of a funk, but things are improving, and I'm getting back to work on the T.N.A. story again.
I'm going to be using PoserPro 2014 for the story - and most of my other art for the foreseeable future. I did get PoserPro 11, but thus far I can't say much good about it. In my experience so far, it's VERY unstable. It seems to crash if you look at it wrong... I fought with it for several hours last night. It was a relatively simple scene with one figure, the Garden Corner by Graycloud (I think), two lights, and a 3D-Age outfit (I've NEVER had a problem with any of 3D-Age's stuff). Every time I tried to change the mat on her outfit, Poser crashed. If I tried to delete the outfit, it crashed. If I changed her pose, it crashed. I finally gave up and put the same scene together in PP2014 (with a lot more stuff in the scene, and it worked flawlessly. I do have a ticket open with SM, so we'll see what happens, but at the moment, my personal opinion of PP-11 is it's a piece of junk.
Anyway, I just wanted to put this up as a thank you to Rendo for listening, and to let you all know I'm still alive. Had a great chat tonight with Faemike, which is always a blast.
Thanks for dropping by and checking things out, and for all your wonderful comments and support over the years! You all rock!
Hope everyone is having a great weekend!

That's why you wait for the service packs Rod! =P
Hehe .......... great story!! and Congrats again! Who said programmers were geeks? They see more software than most people do their whole life, and I don't mean the computer kind! =P

Thanks for the blast from the past, one of my faves along with that coffee machine that got blasted. Wonder what favor she is wanting? And I'll enjoy the series no matter how it is produced, Rod. Enjoy them all. And the secretary looks like she's had enough of their visits. Thanks again for the superb humor and glad your having a great day.

I started in the computer industry in 1978 and I can say this without hesitation, software has really changed!!!!!!! Nice to have you and the girls back contributing to the community. Your literary talents are sorely missed, as are your girls!

Hi Mate! Yes ebots....Shame most of mine are people I've not marked as a watched artist but are vendors! lol Figures.. But at least I got yours and a couple of others.. I will post a few I think, they seem to have sorted out most of my hates now.. (I am on DA as you know but that's being temperament due to my blockers). Neat job and nice to see the girls once more.. Hi Girls! Rob

lol---dynamite! I love it! They even 'land' on RR headquarters...Well, ya use what ya got, to get yer way...love how your characters got the ebots reinstated. And (I'm getting technical now---'visual' technical, I should say, not Poser technical), you use comic techniques beautifully---the little vignette of the RR secretary in the first frame; the 2 or 3 storylines going on at once (4th frame: the girls are one storyline, the secretary peeking in is another---and you spaced them out expertly); overlapping utterances, like the programmer and the secretary in the last frame; etc etc. You really do use your frames well, you seem to know how to fill them but at the same time allow plenty of space. Fine shadows too, and varied lighting on each person. I never realized how much work it takes to get unique expressions for each character, and still keep the overall story, but it looks like a lot of work...Terrific piece, and great thank you to RR. Now if they would do some other things too...(bring back the Search engine, re-install EXIF data, I got a list). Don't worry about being behind on comments, you work long hours and it's just not possible. You leave great comments, so one of yours makes up for all you don't get done due to work, life, etc. One can only do so much. Love this upload.

WOW! Something more is being set right. And THANKS for the fun update! It really gave me a good laugh (and a worse sore back - have had that pain for 2 weeks now). As for PP-11, yeah, pee-pee 11. Glad I didn't waste money or time on it! I scarcely have the time to get into Poser Pro 2014. Sheesh. Now my back's bugging me so I'll have to lie down again. But I don't regret for a second the good laugh you gave me! Man, do I love these encounters! Keep up the good work! :-)
PS - you're not the only one with crazy - crazier work situation! Froggy's having such as well! And so am I (home late, and crazy stuff at work).

There is so much to enjoy in your strips, especially the transition in your first frame with the secretary and with individual personalities of the TNA girls.
Programming issues (I recently upgraded from Windows 7 to Windows 10) will always be an issue, for financial and other reasons. It's not alot different than going from Thanksgiving to Christmas in my world, as change is the nature of life.
Best wishes for the coming Holiday season and thank you for visiting my gallery.

How lovely to come back and see that you are still making these wonderful episodes with my favorite girls. Such great action and story lines and your girls really do look amazing. Sorry to hear that you are having trouble with Poser 11 it is so frustrating when things don't go right in a render.

E-bots working again? - Check. Grand entrance for the girls? - Check. Secretary properly trained? - Check. Appreciation shown to current programmer? - Check. A programmer to continue working on the site? - Uh... Rain-check.
Sheesh! They even melted his speech-bubbles!
