I'm afraid I disagree. Copyrights are just that - the rights to make copies. Meaning - if you buy a painting, you cannot make copies of it and sell them as your own art. Wether you change the color of the sky has nothing to do with it. Now - there is a big difference between painting and 3d scenes. What is copyrighted with 3d scenes is the scene itself, the 3d models, the meshes... all the raw elements and the composition as a scene file. This means you cannot take a .vue file from the CD, tweak it a little bit, and post the .Vue file on your website for other to download. BUT - it does NOT mean you cannot take the scene, tweak it and make pictures out of it. What you created (the picture) is a different medium, to some extend it is your creation. Same thing when you buy a 3d model. Commercial restrictions apply to resale of that object as a 3d model but it does not apply to whatever picture you make of it.
