You know, there really needs to be a group for people just starting to get into DazStudio and the like, where newbies can go and ask dumb questions. I have so many questions, and I can't seem to find the answers anywhere (my brother-in-law has done his darndest, but the things he and I do are so different, he isn't familiar with what I'm working with), and google isn't often as helpful as I'd like it to be. So I'm just kind of sat here like "Are my questions that stupid, or...?"
For example, here's my current situation:
This character is a vampire...I want this character to have pale skin...but I also want him to have freckles and eye shadow! WHERE DO I GO TO PURCHASE PALE SKIN?!?!?! Ugh! Okay, so I can use this thing to give him freckles...but like...does this eyeshadow work on him, or not? Now I have assets for G8...is G8.1 the same thing, and will this, specific thing I've just spent $40 on work on this G9 model I'd like to use too? Do I use this thing that's a shader to force the model to have pale skin? If so, will that effect other characters in the scene? Do I just purchase a whole separate model...for their skin?
I am now experiencing a crisis and feel like some sort of serial killer, lol. XD

Although I've been on here for a few months, I've been dipping in and out and still feel like a newbie so bear with me here...
1. I see a lot of people with hashtags in their bio. Does this actually make a difference to how discoverable your profile is?
2. Both the Mastodon clients I've tried out have a "trending" tab/section where you can see either trending posts or trending hashtags. With no algorithms going on here, what is considered trending content? How would the trending posts section differ from my federated timeline for example?

I am still not fully convinced I understand how an antenna tuner works.
If I have an antenna with a 3:1 match and a tuner brings that down to 1.0:1 and the radio can then send its full 100W, how much power is effectively radiated? Is it around 75W or 100W?
If it’s 75W, where does the lost power go (heat in the tuner?) and if it’s 100W, what’s worse about this setup than the same antenna slightly adjusted to be resonant by itself? 🤔

Is there any way I would be able to read posts from people in opposite timezones other than getting up at 4am in the night or hoping that someone in my timeline will boost them during my daytime?
Is this what lists are for?

#HappyFriday to all! With Elon’s announcement of the amnesty on banned Twitter accounts, I will be making my exit. Is there a #trick someone could share that will help me search and find of people and organizations easily on Mastodon?

Feel like I've gone up a level as I've now spent time not only adding bits to profile but sorting lists on here!
Possibly just me but if there is anyone else trying to work out how to add to a #List you've created I found it by clicking the 3 dots on the users profile you want to add to a list.(This was on PC web browsing so could easily be elsewhere on all the different app options)

I'm currently running mobile Mastodon on the #Metatext app and wondering why some images show up normally and some come up like the screenshot below. Anyone have any insights? #mastodonhelp #newbiequestions #mastodonimages #help

@Archieinrye @jaz I assume the issue will be members of the federated universe that do not moderate as we would prefer. So what happens then, is it easy for other nodes to exclude those networks? cc @mikarv @lilianedwards @mathver #NewbieQuestions

An additional #MastodonNewbie question. There is a 'language' button in the thing I'm typing this #toot in right now. With me, it's set on NL (Dutch) as a standard, yet I toot in Dutch and English. Is it good practice to set the function to EN every time I toot in English, or is the only thing being influenced by that the correction of my spelling?

I use mastodon on my computer. I have a question for others that do this - is there much difference between various browsers? Do you prefer one browser over another? Why? #NewbieQuestions #WhichBrowser

Soooo .... is there a trick to posting photos here or is the server just utterly slammed? I try to upload a photo but it just sits on "uploading" for a while then "processing" for something like 15 minutes then disappears entirely. Mobile or PC, no difference. Would a different Mastodon server be better? The world needs more cat photos! #NewbieQuestions

hey, is there a browser extension I can use so liking a post on someone else's mastodon site doesn't require a popup, manually typing my mastodon address and a redirect before it will let me like it?
Or is there some other way to do this?
On a related note, for people on my instance should I just set up a manual redirect from the instanceURL/@username to instanceURL/web/@username?
