This TOPIC is the forum version of the Energizer Bunny.
And it's getting to be just about as irritating.
As has been pointed out, there are other sites to post on......so why spend so much time sweating/fuming over the policies around here?
If Renderosity chooses to do things in a certain way: then I feel safe in saying that the prime concern for them has to do with business issues.
Big deal. This isn't some sort of Nazi conspiracy against anyone's artistic freedom.
It's just a pragmatic decision based upon the effect that it will have on the business end of things -- no more, no less.
If I owned this business, then I'd be doing the same thing. If it helped me to grow the site and increase cash flow, then I'd go for it. And I'd simply weather the fallout from some.
Purist ideology tends to get in the way of making money.
Sure -- it's easy to be ideologically pure. Until it's an issue of your back pocket. At that point, most people tend to forget ideology.
For some strange reason.
Good night, folks. Have fun.
My advice would be to forget this tempest in a teapot here -- and then go post your stuff at the sites which are geared for it.
If you want to post something in the gallery here -- then make it something that you know will pass the gallery litmus test at this site. It really isn't very hard to figure out what they'll accept.
Attempting to do anything else as some sort of a feeble "protest" is just wasting both your time and theirs.
