Why Are There No Links to Clothing Seen on Figures

Love Daz products and am addicted to them - probably spend $100 a month here, easily. But this drives me crazy! Just this morning I put P3D Celine in my cart and also wanted to buy the bikini she was wearing in one of the pictures. I thought the vampire hair was awesome. So I'm reduced to searching for these products separately and often don't find them. Am I missing something? Are there links I'm not seeing or are most of the figures clothed using non-Daz stuff (this wouldn't seem to make much sense...). I hope someone at Daz reads this if its truly not something I've missed, because I'm telling you how much I want to spend more of my money here Lol

Thank you!
Some products have links down at the bottom of the page that tell you what the "additional items used in promo images" are, but not all...
I agree, it would be nice to have links to all the items used in promo images, seems like a no-brainer for Daz too.
Sometimes the artist doing the promos is not the vendor, so they might not have the list.
Besides even if you keep track of what you used in each promo pic, when you have lots of promos and/or lots of products used it quickly becomes difficult to list them all, and you'd have to update the list if you've been asked to redo some of the pics during the submission process.
And another problem is that some of those items might not be sold at DAZ anyway, so you can't list them.
I do lists on mine since they made that option available to us. The only time you won't see something is that 1. it was a pose product and I kitbashed multiples (which with ctrl clicking is very easy but makes crediting hard), or 2. It was a hair from Renderosity and we're not allowed to cite products from other stores.
When an artist renders a LOT of different characters, sometimes the number of hairs in the Daz store over four generations isn't even enough!
Would be useful - as in saving the customer time - if they at least allowed for the inclusion of a comment such as used products not available from Daz.
Yeah, I've had this problem a lot, too. Spending hours going through every generation's clothing in the store in the hopes of finding an outfit you only get a glimpse of but like the look of only to find out it came from elsewhere that way is really annoying. At least having to list all the Daz items in scene and noting that others weren't in the store would help a lot. Even just no links and names of items used would help a lot - at least we'd have something to go off.
On a related note, I've been trying to figure out where the outfit used in today's freebie is from (this one) I've asked around a few times but no one's had any answer yet. Obviously in this case the product is a freebie so you can't demand all the bells and whistles, but I'm still curious as to what it is.
It is Disclosed II for Genesis 3 Female(s) By lilflame
you can find it over at rendo.
In general, if you are curious about an outfit... just ask. often my lists get edited so that everything I write down, doesn't get included. I've been contacted by the helpdesk to find out what outfits or hair are..... so... just ask.
I will have to agree with Lyoness; asking is sometimes the best way to find out if there isn't a listing of items used in promotional images. Amd, I am going to ask what the one used in the main promo for Vanda for Karen 7 was, as I haven't found it yet.
