It seems a bit strange to me. Renderosity and daz are about the only sites that bother about the copyright thing. I can see how daz dont want trouble selling stuff but free items are different. Another thing, how does making 3d objects of star trek etc affect paramount and the other companies, unless they are planning on making their own 3d versions of stuff? The bigger companies should be more relaxed about people making 3d versions of their things. The star wars stuff is a good example, hundreds of star wars items can be downloaded from thenet and even at starwars.com they allow and encourage fan films, it hasnt done them any harm. It can be good publicity for a company to allow fan films and 3d objects and it can be very bad publicity if they dont.
