I don't know what people expect. I don't think any apology would be enough...and that's really very sad on many levels. I think, thewishmaster, you should resist the temptation to read any more of this thread. Learn from the experience and move on. You now know to be more careful with what you download, whether or not it is free. There are textures for sale that are meant for people to use as a base for their own textures...I'd suggest you save up your pennies and get one of those, acknowledge the source material, and go back to doing someting creative with your time. It's really not going to be productive to continue reading this thread. People will believe what they want to believe. You can't change anyone's mind, and I wouldn't try. I have and it's never worked. Really, time to move on. There's a little box down below the message box that says: Notify: Email me when someone replies. This would be a good time to uncheck it. Really.
