Sculptris can bring new experiences to me personally as well as others when I first started owning and using it.
Good!

Hi Tim—
I just looked and my suspicions were confirmed; yes, you can download an alpha of Sculptris which is about a decade old, at Softonic
But Pixelogic bought it quite a quile back and transmogrified the3 product into (free) ZBrush mini-core, which has a $$$ big brother they push, but that's not the point.
ZBrush mini-core has updated tools, can export to OBJ, and the people DO update it. I just received a new version (you need to register) with quite significant number of new operations.
Free ZBrush mini-core
Also, also, Autodesk offers a free basic sculpting program called MeshMixer MeshMixer, which appears to be a new development and not Mudbox, which they acquired ages ago. The unique thing about this as an entry-level sculpting program is thast you can import an OBJ file and mess with it...hence "mesh mixer".
Happy sculpting, in any case.

On another note, you guys might check out a site called opensea.io
This is a site for listing and selling NFT (non fungible tokens). People all over the world are marketing NFT images, a huge amount, images they did not create and are using to make money.
A colleague of ours pointed out quite a few of our stereogram images that were being offered on the site. I made a list of mine and had them all removed.
Most of these people have no concept of copyrights (and of course all my copyright info was cropped out) and they just think if it's on the web it's good to go.

Yours is a good shout-out for all content creators, Og.
As soon as yu become addicted even in the least to Crypto-currency, you begin to play a stock market that is weighted heavily against the investor.
My advice, not than anyone has asked, is to keep selling what you're selling on reputable site stores, and when someone comes around advising you that NFAs or similar are a great way to make money quickly, ask them who is at the top of the pyramid.

I agree. And there is so much stuff on that site most of those people will not see a dime.
We put a bunch of our stereogram images on shutterstock.com, a legitimate stock image site, thinking we would get rich. So far I think our royalties have not gone over $20. Max.

This is trending, Og: SMB—small to medium businesses—are actually giving up selling off their own web page, and migrating towards social media, getting a corporate account, and more or less "set it and forget it".
I make precious little over my font store over on Creative Market, but then again, I don't work it at all. It's for lunch money, but I must say, the conglomerate of online graphics resources ain't a bad place for your goods or mine. Create a number of suitable for framing stereograms and then gradually offer custom work.
They're always giving away free content, and I'm always downloading it, and that's the classic "bait and switch" from advertising. You download a "loss leader", then they "getch" before you check out with something tailored for to your tastes before you check out.
I'm not a sucker, but I will buy useful things. Example: a digital sculptor posted a beautiful collection of the four elements. I really don't have the time to learn how to do this myself, I think at the time they were $12 for the four.
I think the maxim is, "You get less than what you pay for, and as a vendor, you get less than you want."
