QWhile I have liked most of daz's freebies, I get upset by people hollering about ingratitude whenever someone criticizes them. People have the right to criticize and suggest improvements (even if they're wrong). When i was a kid I was always told that whenever someone gives you something, be Grateful, which meant accepting it without question or reservation, or that if you don't like the gift, pretend you do. Anything else would mean that you weren't Grateful and would put you in danger of Never Receiving Another Gift from that person again. "What Am I Supposed To Do With This?" is a one of the feared Things You Must Never Say. Well, I believe that idea is BS. It's ok to complain about free stuff. If you don't like something, don't take it, but if people don't like something you gave away, but you're never open to suggested improvements, how will you everlearn to start making the coveted Great Stuff. The stuff that, when people say Thank You they reaslly mean it. Now let me end this by mentioning that people like Daz and Sams3D have great stuff, for which i want to say Thank You Very Much. Most opf the time when I have not d/l-ed daz's weekly freebie it was because it was fir one of their products I don't have. Their freebies have never been "poor" or "throw-away". Sometimes things I don't need, but never "junk". Thanks, Daz.
