ARRRRGH! I just had this long reply written up and the damned Rendermonstery ATE IT >_<;; Short story, I talked to my hubby (cop) who basically agrees that this is more of a moral issue than a legal one in regards to the customers who made the purchase in good faith. Regardless, REnderosity still has a responsibility to their merchants and customers to actively discourage this type of behavior. Plagiarized images get pulled from the galleries, and offenders banned for repeat offences. Any poor schmuck with the bad luck to use the wrong words (or is simply ignorant of the facts about piracy) when searching for commercial models is assumed to be a warezekitty, is probably banned if not driven away by the ridicule, rather than pointed toward the proper resources and educated. Merchants who plagiarise and sell the products of others seem to just be getting a slap on the wrist and allowed to do this repeatedly. Meanwhile, Renderosity still gets their 50% cut. This just seems very, very wrong to me.
