They are the same tools Don uses to make the village products, which are uploaded to the "normal" IMVU. Even if they didn't work, that still doesn't stop you from using our products on the normal IMVU, you'd just need to use the information you learn from Don's PRB classes to do everything manually.
Even if we didn't provide tools or information, we still provide the raw files. So no matter how you look at it, our products can be used on the normal IMVU.
However, it doesn't matter where you get a BM product from, trying to upload it as is without any sort of precautions will get you caught. That's just the nature of the game. You have to put in a ton of effort and play the cat and mouse game with IMVU. Hence the whole reason we built our alt version of IMVU. As long as BM products are considered UFI by IMVU, they will never be as convenient to use as GA/AP products.
If you don't like that then I'm afraid you have 4 options:
1) Use our safe Alt IMVU
2) Buy AP+
3) Quit using BM products
4) Leave IMVU and go to Second Life
