But you sell some stuff as well don't you? For you the freestuff serves two purposes, first to give something bck to the community - though I have to say I think you're way in credit on that one. Second it acts as a shop window for your other stuff. You might just as well argue that you are damaging your own sales! Honestly, without wanting to sound callous, I think you should do what you do and let other folk make their own choices. All artistic endeavour, when it strives to be commercial, hits the simple problem that there are probably more 'artists' than there are customers for them. It's hideous, but that's the world we all live in. Someone elses success or failure is not your responsibility. For all you know, their 'failure' or struggle has nothing to do with your freestuff, but more to do with their marketing/ choice of product/ pricing/ sheer dumb luck/ fashion/ and who knows what else! I wish I knew how produce what other people want to pay for, I really do - er- except that I'd end up producing stuff that I hated - so maybe I don't after all.... The point is, you don't need our advice - you've done a great job, given incredibly generously, and are rightfully admired and respected. You do what's right for you, and whatever you do, judging on past performance, will probably be right. regards peejay
