your freebies are great, and without them getting bumped, i wouldn't have seen them, so there. :) yes, the freestuff software stinks, but that's nothing compared to the bad smell whiners such as those abusing you have. but really, whiners are small-minded pitiful people because they don't have anything better to do. whining is so much easier than creating something; consider feeling sorry for them instead -- you are creating nifty models, they whine -- no comparison, really. "nothing online means anything"? nonsense. i don't make a distinction between online and the rest of my life, because everything that happens online also happens offline, except it can be or seem more direct online. in some ways that directness is a blessing; sometimes it sucks. and i think it's best for one's mental health to learn to let negativity roll off one's back, online and in meatspace both. this is easier said than done, but it's a skill one can acquire with practice. one year i planted a seedling for every nasty thing that got to me -- being out in the fresh air doing a bit of physical activity got rid of the adrenaline, and i had the best garden ever! i figure we're creative people, we can come up with better ways to handle our stress if we only put our minds to it. best wishes for your son's health, and thank you for your freebies!
