I believe there is truth to Huolong's post - as a supplier of models that I've put up for free I feel this way about it: The models I've made available for free are free. I don't even include any disclaimers about their use. To me they can be a way of building a rep for making models with well named parts and coherent scale, etc. Then if down the line I want to offer a 'For Sale' section then perhaps the free ones can help pave that road. Although I do believe if credit for components that are used commercially is possible then it should be done - (although I don't even count on people being able to manage that). BUT - I don't believe Dendra should have been banned (albeit for a short amount of time) for complaining about it (no matter how insulting he may have been)- the host(s) (and we don't know if they didn't do this) should have given him a schpleel (?) somewhere along the lines of Huolongs message and my paragraph above. I don't feel the hosts have any other obligation to any of us what happens with items we post for free. Sorry I missed the site though. - Dave www.citizendave.com
