If the shaders are so simple to make then why is Starkdog trying to distribute Traveler's instead? A really good shader can be a very complicated set up in the material room and is not just "dial spinning".
So, Miz, you have no problem if I take part of your freebies and redistribute them with my own stuff? Even if it's a commercial product? So basically I can rip you off and that's okay 'cause after all it was only a freebie?! I SO disagree with your viewpoint!
Anyway, if you download a freebie and don't like the stipulations set out in the readme then delete the freebie (since it doesn't qualify as "free" in your definition.) Don't bitch and whine that the creator is being selfish because they have stipulations. That's their perogative. Just like I'm not going to go to lunch with someone I don't like just because they're paying. I'm also not going to complain when that person refuses to give me money for said "free lunch" instead.
I'd also like to beat the dead horse that says this whole stupid arguement could've been avoided if Starkdog would've initially addressed his questions directly and privately to Trav.
