Inform me of any issues with the links above. Sorry there isn't more, finding these programs is time consuming.

A quick ~~note~~ notes: the reason the Aviary Phoenix and Raven had "(down)" instead of links earlier was because of a sort of "error" which made the site crash. Since the site was down I couldn't get the links, and even if I had them they wouldn't work.

The reason DAZ studio isn't listed is because some of the 3D models on their front page have partial nudity (its not anything all that bad though).

I can't seem to find out how to download quartz composer, there must be some way... This is getting confusing.

*Recommended
√ Works on OS X

Note to mods: My only reason for doing this is to help people find the software they need, I'm not advertising.
