We are still discussing this here at the office. I think there has been some confusion on whats what regarding this issue so please hang tight before jumping off the deep end:)

But I do want to say, somebody like say "DAD", I don't understand why you wouldn't take the few seconds to upload your item to the Freestuff area so it can be highlighted?  The majority of people wanting to get some freestuff items are certainly not coming to the forums to get it so you are really doing your freestuff item a dis service unless you don't want that many people having it??  To me the way I see the Freestuff area is its like a "Gallery for Freestuff" the upload process is simple and you just take the link you post here and put it in the appropriate field in the upload page??? I really don't get why someone would rather post a link in a forum thread than put it in a highlighted area specifically for freestuff?

Also one other note, places like Daz or Poserpros, they don't have a freestuff area ONLY a forum right?  Our freestuff area should be seen as the way their forums work, we have an AREA designated to freestuff not just a forum so over there is only ONE place to put your freestuff links, the forums. Here the Freestuff area is where you SHOULD put your links and the forum is an additional area where you can highlight it more..
