I provide freestuff for comm and noncomm use. If I can't supply something for comm use I won't make it, even if its a freebie. (I haven't gone into vending yet... I may however, I've had reservations but the call to offer items of my creation to the marketplace has been stronger as of late lol) That being said, I don't want my freebie work stolen and someone else's name put on it as being their work. But I think in cases like this... when you sell stuff you could have had for free... people get a really ugly opinion of that person and their name becomes total trash very quickly. I often look at a vendor's freestuff to get an idea of what they can do. If I see something in the store that's interesting, I look to their free area and see what they have done. If they have done NOTHING, no freestuff, no gallery... I will not buy the item right away, no matter how good it looks. (it could be warez) I'm a poser addict much like Lee is... I spend quite a bit on Poser items. I think he pretty well covered it there!
