Ah Zottel, we cannot all be modelers, and indeed the store wishes to carry alot more than models! Textures, cool morphs of existing models we all have, cool morphs of Vicki, Tutorials on how to do some neat trick we always wanted to know how to do... etc. The store should carry not only all the things it takes to create lovely art, but also INFORMATION, since what makes our community so unique is the vast stores of knowhow we have in total here. As to mugs and mousepads... that is a great idea for down the road, but would not help out in this immediate need, since producing things of that nature takes capital (and we are low of even the most basic capital to keep the site up with), and also it takes "storage space" and mailing things, and well... as Amazon.com found out, running a virtual store with hard merchandise, instead of solely electronic merchandise, is alot harder than one ever imagined. Thus them suddenly having to build 11 warehouses last year ;P
