    Ummm don't we get a freebie once a week as PC members ,and then the batch of freebies ever other week .......at least I do ...... or am I just confused?oh and the new one every month too

    October gets weird with the PC+ sale.  You do get a freebie, but it comes on Sunday or Monday instead of Wednesday, and it's hidden in the overall sale area.

    Usually the PC+ freebie comes on Wednesday, but I thought it might change with the PC+ sale. It might come today.

    edit: right after I posted that, I refreshed the PC+ sale page, and saw the new freebie: https://www.daz3d.com/platinum-club-freebies

    Thanks for the Gianni Bundle, Daz, he's been in my wishlist for a while! (I already have the Steph 6 bundle). I also recommend the Amethyst Genesis outfit (but it won't fit to G3F unless you have a Genesis clone or Genesis>G3 converter, and I suspect the same would be true of G8F.

    Wow thanks, Gianni 6 starter bundle is great... and other freebies too :), trying to get WarVixen for some time but somehow always something else gets in the way... and now looking at that Nicole texture, Hongyus bikinis are also great, will need to get that too cool. I should try making some native american renders, need to think of the story I guess...

     

    Thanks DAZ, wonderful freebies beside all other PC+ goodies angel

    Ordinarily Three for G2F: I'm having trouble making that jacket look like anything other than pajamas (or Beetlejuice cosplay), but those slacks are pretty sharp!

    Monday morning blues in DAZ land, looks like someone forgot to tag them as freebies.

    ROFL, I didn't even pay attention to the prices. I was suprised they were up very early morning, my time (am an hour ahead of Dazland time). Usually I don't see them until mid morning my time, an hour so after Daz's people would make it to work. 

    Good thing I have most of those. 

  • ChoholeChohole Posts: 33,604

    Freebies are now fixed

    gaaah. the "new" *cough cough* biweekly freebie suck, again. 2 things from 12 that can be used for males - the hair, which is an old model and not the best hairwise, and the track suit - all the rest is for chicks. besides the fact that i already own pretty much everything except very female stuff since those items have been in the shop for ages. ofc i have the hair and the track suit already.
    again, another bi-week where i get absolutely nothing from those freebies. IS IT REALLY ASKING TOO MUCH TO BALANCE THE GENDERS A BIT BETTER?  at least that, tho not serving the same re-heated eternal same stuff again and again would be nice too. it's not that i'm not thankful for free stuff, it's that giving out for free old stuff that most people already own or don't want is not cool - why even bother. at least if this page was cancelled i wouldn't bring my hopes up every single darn biweek just to be disappointed, AGAIN.

    At this time of Thanksgiving, thankfulness seems to be the atmosphere to build. I know this time there are only 3 things that I don't have and 2 of them are texture add-ons for outfits that I don't have, but I remember a time waaaaay back when where only 1 freebie came out a week. Now since they are GIVING us some FREEBIES wouldn't it be nice if we had an attitude of gratefulness and said "Thank you"!?

    i usually say a warm thank you when i get something.. not when i get nothing...
    you know how many people download freebies from sites like rendo, sharecg etc - and how many actually write a comment to say thank you? check the difference between "downloaded" and the number of comments or likes.. well, i make a point to always say at least thank you, and most often, a nice grateful and admirative comment. because I GOT SOMETHING awesome for free, and I AM THANKFUL. now, i don't see why i should be thankful for things i don't want, that come regularly again to top it all.

    would you be thankful if i threw you some old things i have no use for, that you don't need nor want, every two weeks, and then rinse & repeat?

    Maybe this time there aren't any goodies for you....but there are other newer customers that are getting some goodies, which helps build the customer base, who in turn hopefully support the artists who will make more goodies both to sell and for free, instead of go out of business. As a father of six from a family of five boys you learn that if you are thankful your turn will come to. Also if you join the Platinum Club there is a freebie each week. Perspective my friend takes you higher.....

    OH-kaaaay, we get it--Someone is really. Really. REALLY! Tremendously unhappy with the current batch of freebies. 

    So, anyways, I am still thankful for the Gianni 6 starter bundle that was free last time, and the Stephanie one, offered free at the same time--how's that for equality?--I've owned for quite some time.

    Now for my target audience--people who want to know what's on the freebies page. (In case you're wondering why I started doing this, it's because I like to do the Freebie Challenges and making this list was a way to keep track of what normally-paid Daz content--I probably already owned--was eligible for the current contest. Then I thought, "Someone else might find my lists useful.")

    Generation 4 & Earlier
    Evening Gown for V4
    V4 Hero Pro Pack (has 2 hairs that might be nice with Iray hair shaders)
    Valana Outfit

    Genesis
    Cool Sports (no hood morphs to remove or push back)
    JSkirt
    Kameeze Textures
    Pure Hair: Cool (again, Iray hair shader sets)
    Stephanie 5 Poses
    Summer Casuals Fitted Sundress
    Wicked Party Wear (picked this up for the necklace, to try with Iray texures)
    Ysatis Textures

    G2F
    Dark Princess Textures

    Hey don't be alarmed. Any money you pay for the freebies will go to the crowd-funding drive to buy Vicky the rest of her body armour  :-)

    Didn't you say " i already own pretty much everything EXCEPT very female stuff since those items have been in the shop for ages" so that means there is something free that you CAN get thus a reason to be thankful....just sayin!

    Well, I am...

    I like that image... I kind of picture that all set to the beat of some early 90s New Age music... not the good kind... lots of synthesizer music and whale sounds in the background... also it's rendered in Bryce and there are cheesy late 80s CGI dolphins frolicking on the horizon as the sun sets. Although, I'm not sure if it's universal love I'm feeling or just a little gassiness... wait... no... it's gas.

    Wooo... definitely gas.

    I still think that the most interesting part of the editorial is the fact that the reporter hasn't got the foggiest idea what he is talking about if he genuinely feels that Daz 3d sell images.
