I know that Renderosity is definte about the copyright thing - I remember some of the renaming that you used to do in order to site your freebies here ;) - but are you so sure about other places? I mean, if PoserPros has let this Aliens set go on sale - where the vendor explicitly states that these are taken fro the movies - is it possible that other sets, from yourself or other people, might also be welcome there?

It's entirely possible that I'm wrong. If so, then this IS a double-standard, by allowing some vendors to sell their products, and not yourself. however, if that's the case, then it's a PoserPros issue (since they're the ones operating like this) rather than a Renderosity one, and I'd recommend opening up a thread like this over there.

The fan-model thing, ragarding copyright and profit-making, is fair enough, I see your point there also. I'm not sure I'm qualified enough to judge whether or not the Aliens set at PoserPros comes close enough to the original pieces to be removed by this - equally, I'm not saying that they should be kept up.

Of course, there is another way to look at this. Maybe your work is TOO good, and too close to the original, to be allowed to sell. you're just too skilled a modeler. ;)
