Quote - Look at the large picture:  If a DAZ video of our sample images begins to circulate through the world, the world will get to know DAZ better, and curiosity will bring more people to DAZ.  There has been no harm done, only benefit.  I just can't see one gram of harm done.  Now if Daz were to sell our images for 1million dollars a pop(or whatever) and took all the profit, then that's a whole 'nother story.

 

Really now...So if I took any of your images and posted it on the web and called it my own, it's ok? Going by your logic it's ok as long as I don't profit from it. 

Or how about this. I took a bunch of images from artists here, made a video, set it to music, called it Bryce 6, stuck it on YOUTUBE.com  AND called it my own, there would be no harm in that? As long as I don't profit from it right? 

The fact of the matter is people saw the video probably went to daz3d and bought Bryce. Great...Daz profits and not a single credit to the artists who worked hard on their images.  Daz already makes a pretty good penny. I've spent hundreds of hard earned dollars at daz. It simply would have been nice to get a bit of credit.
