Well, I know it's my fault for not having adequate Anti-Virus software running, but, my computer hasn't been hooked up to the internet for a LONG time (hence, the lack of submissions), and even though I suspected a virus, at least my machine was still working. But as of a few weeks ago, thanks to my neighbor, I have internet again. So I downloaded some anti-virus software and scanned my Program Files folder and also the sub-folder where I save all of the downloaded installers, and I found that EVERY SINGLE BIT of my Daz Studio softwar was infected. I don't know much about viruses but I know that if this wipes out my Daz Sudio capabilities(I've already lost V3, Aiko3, their morph packs and countless pieces of poser content), then that'll pretty much be the end of my days as a 3d artist. I don't have the money to replace the registered Daz3d content that was lost and this entire machine is probably infected as well and I definitely can't afford another one. So, sadly, the few 3d renders that I've posted here, mediocre as they are, will probably be the last I'll ever create. I don't know how the whole anti-virus thing works, but, unless Daz3d is in the habit of replacing software lost through stupidity then I guess that's it for me. Thanx to everyone that helped me and inspired me to get into 3d in the first place. I 'd like to thank each one individually but right now I feel so defeated that I just want to pack it all up and forget I ever even tried. My work, and I know it's mediocre at best, was one of the few little things in my life that I was kinda proud of. I feel like I'm getting tied down and beaten by somebody that doesn't even know why they hate me. Fuck it. Just......fuck it.
