Congratulations on the incredible Hivewire Big Cat release! I just had a quick play with it in DS and Iray and it's absolutely beautiful. It's perfection! Everything is top notch, from the modelling and rigging to the beautiful textures. All the little details just bring it to life. The first thing I do when I install something textured by Laurie is to go look at the textures. So gorgeous @_@
Fantastic work, guys! Looking forward to cats and dogs in the future!
Cooking a render right now with Saiyaness's vitiligo model: Imari and Big kitty. A match made in heaven!

So, uh, I'm a bit spoiled now, since I finally came around to play with the kitty - in general, my reaction consisted of the following phrases: "Wow!", "Wait, you can do that?", "Cats don't seem to abide the laws of physics at all, and that is good" and, of all things, "Want to hug!". This cat raises the bar for animal models in Studio/Poser quite a bit in my humble opinion and is a step up above the already excellent Harry (that's the horse's name, right?). Amazing work, big kudos to all the creators involved

Welcome to the Hive pRabbit. As you've already discovered the guys here just keep on raising the bar (check out the Gorilla and Tiny's dynamic hair for same). The friendship comes naturally! 
There has been a small update to Kitty -

Does that mean we are supposed to re-download it?
Maybe I'm still half asleep this morning, but could you tell me just where the thread you're refering to is ? A "Small update" isn't referring to the cub, is it?
I think Alisa is talking about this thread Product Updates - Main Notification
Yes, there was a small update to the big cat and the cub. Paul tweaked some ingredients to make them even fluffier and more delicious! Yes, you would need to download again to get updates.

The big cat looks even better now that it's fluffier
Of course, would get an LAMH add-on in a flash

I should actually clarify this statement as I actually finish the majority of the models I start. If I was to start giving them away for free, you guys would have an unending trickle (well, drip) of props and stuff coming from me. It's when I get past the modeling point that i get into trouble and stall out. Especially when I run into rules for packaging things up and especially when we're talking two different formats, Poser and DS. Scares me to a standstill because I just know I'm going to do something wrong or stupid.
Quick story: I've been playing with Poser since Poser 2, so I've been around for a while. I used to love making poses for Aiko 3, my favorite figure at the time. So I thought I'd try to make some poses to sell at DAZ. I didn't really know the ins and outs of selling anything, I still don't I guess, but thought I'd give it a shot. Sent in the poses and it was rejected. I either don't remember why or they didn't tell me, but either way, kind of put me out of the mood for trying to make anything else to sell. I kept making poses for free. You can even still find some of them around in places. And I got even better over time. Never tried to sell them anymore though. Fear of failure can stop you cold.
I encourage you to try again here, Earl. If something is not accepted, we do try to tell you why, and if there are issues in terms of packaging things, don't worry about doing something wrong or stupid - just do the best you can. I work through that with our new CAs, and you'll learn as you go along. I haven't beaten up any new CAs yet .
