DTHUREGRIF, I did not or at least did not mean to insinuate or state that you folks were demanding exclusivity. I apologize if that is how it came off. ThralLord, those "non-vendors" you refer to are your customers wanting to give you their money. You do excellent work. But without a customer or an appreciative audience, what do you have other than self-satisfaction. And I am not sure that the call to list at B-Bay was a call to abandon Renderosity. I surely would not support such an act. First, because this place does deserve our support. Secondly, it would not make good business sense for vendors to do so. Just as I think it makes perfect business sense to place your wares in a manner that is not dependent on a single entity be it Renderosity, B-Bay or wherever. Finally, since I detected a few backhanded slaps at B-Bay and this inner feeling of an Us vs. Them attitude growing I am withdrawing from this thread. This community suffered a very ugly and divisive split not too long ago and I am not about to be a part of or the unwitting instigator of another. I enjoy and respect both places and the people behind them too much. Take care and Godspeed.
