People seem very confused between change and improvement. Lmao Being happy or content is fine, but is subjective, it's also no excuse really to not improvement or act like everythings fine now, just relax. If you're content, then you are content. What's added shouldn't interfere with you. Lol To willfully inhibit a failing product, however, is really just negligent, especially considering Terragen's position, and maintaining the software is fine and doesn't need improvement (which seems to be the general conveyance and arguments).
There is a lot that Terragen simply doesn't have that it needs, or could very much help with peoples workflow, and heck, may even make your contentment more content. Lol And continuing to come back to talk about how you're fine doesn't help with Terragen's images. Your usernames are very versed in the forums, and bias to any subjective outside perspective, which... is how you make sales... A lot of peoples attitudes here creating a air of contment has really held Terragen back in reality, and many Terragen users have left for lack of improvement. In fact, the majority of them! We are literally grains compared to the user-base, and past galleries on renderosity, deviantart, shadowness, etc. A hollowed reflection of an optimistic and excited past.
You guys are the strongest driving force in Matt's life, and you are fine with how the software is failing, and that's not good encouragement for Matt and inevitably his career lifeline. We should be encouraging change, obviously not harassing him, but encouraging the development and advancement of the software to help it succeed. As it is you are all always fine, out of friendship, respect, and your personal workflows developed for years, and from the help of those for years / the beginning. Which means you're the most powerful driving force behind Matt's effort. Don't abuse it and hurt the potential, whether unkowingly or not.
You should also always be open to peoples ideas, or concerns, and not shut them down with "I'm fine" like you're an authority in the software, further making the community and software inhospitable to change and concern. Too often are topics shown down with "I like it the way it is" (when it often doesn't entail changing their workflor) or some other encouraging sentiment that does no help to TG, the community, or new users concerns.
