Leather and Vinyl Shaders for DAZ Studio 4.5 and Luxus for LuxRender

Six leather shaders and four vinyl shaders.  All will render in both DAZ Studio and in LuxRender via the Luxus plugin.  The shaders are optimized for Luxus, but have included settings for DAZ Studio.  They look better on clothing than they do on the ottomans in the promo images.  You can recreate your own colors in DS by changing the diffuse color.  For Luxus, you must change the Glossy Translucent Absorption color, but remember that the absorption color is the inverse of the color you want.  So, for example to get white, make Absorption color black.  To get other colors, simply subtract the R, G, and B colors from 255.  For example, Hot Pink is R: 255, G: 78, B: 157, so you would set the absorption color to R: 0 (255-255), B: 177 (255-78), G: 98 (255-157).

Good luck, and enjoy!  Use them any way you want, even commercially, but give me a nod in your readme file.
