Man people just love to jump on Anton. If you were one of the people that downloaded this freebie, as was I, you have pirated, illegal, copyright infringed textures. If you use them then your using stolen goods. If this had been posted in IM, or email I would not have been informed, and I would have still had the files. Anton NEEDED to post a messege to inform people, and he did that, and I for one hope that it never happens again, but should it, I hope he chooses the same exact manner to inform. Ignorance of copyrights does not justify violating them in a court of law. Copyright infringement is a serious thing and can be very costly in penalties and even time in jail. Any theft more than a certain monitary amount is a Felony. People need to be aware, and it is a big issue. someone else can have the soapbox, I'm off and out of it.
