I appreciate the efforts to protect us but aren't we cutting off our nose to spite our face? I think that downloading of my images for personal use by someone else is a complement to my ability. Art hack that I am, I would be thrilled that someone would think my work good enough to steal. I assume that downloading going to happen any time I put an image up. Changing the galleries would make it harder for this type of casual personal use to occur. It will have a far greater impact on our casual users and do nothing to stop art thieves. Anyone with enough brains to set up their own website and even set up paypal or a merchant account to sell art knows enough code to bypass this barrier. I can come up with at least two ways to get jpg, mpg, mov content off an active browser. Here is one of the latest posted. I shrank it 50% and watermarked it out of difference to what you are trying to accomplish. I remember going to a website and thinking wow this guy's poser work is really great. That was until I recognized a piece by Michael Whelan. I do think this is a problem. But it's a problem that needs to be addressed on the other end. Prosecution and closing of offending sites will eliminate these people while leaving the galleries open for the enjoyment of our own members. We live in a society afraid to take risks. We might get robbed; therefore lets make the gallery images inaccessible. We could prosecute the thief or complain to the web host. What if we loose or the Rosity member decides not to press charges? We leave ourselves open to countersuits and damages. Lets just slap a band-aid on the problem. Lets just build higher walls while the thief runs around outside unchecked. Why don't you just close the galleries? That will make it 100% sure pictures can never be taken from Renderosity again. I'm sorry I don't agree with this philosophy. My wife can't get the drugs she needs for MS because they can be used to get high or cause birth defects and can't be risked. My kids and 50,000,000 others can't use metal protractors in math or wear army or camos because 2kids went nuts three states away four years ago. Everyone is guilty therefore lets take the opportunity away from all.
