"I'm one of the few around here that views things the way they should be, imo. For me the modeler or content creator is the real artist, the user using the models or content is only a mere user, using someone elses art to create an image with it. Imo the end user doesn't create art at all, he's just using someone else's art to create an image".

Keep telling yourself that if you want. I've seen art done by purchasers that totally blew away what the creator of the content could have ever rendered. It really comes down to the fact that in computer graphics there are specialty's. Some are excellent UV mappers. Some are great texture makers. Some are excellent mesh builders. Some can put it all together in a scene and make it do more than the origanal artist who made it. The fact is computer graphics have gotten to technical for most to be a master of all. Areas of it have become a specialty. Same in Poser. Some are masters of python or the cloth room or face room or material room, but nobody that I'm aware of is the very best at all the above. I build and have one item for sale, but I'm not in it for the money otherwise I'd quit. I do it because I like it.
