>> What I am saying is” IT IS VERY IRRITATING having found an item that you feel will add something to an image you are creating. To check the details on the detail tab. Only to find the complete opposite in the read me.

Okay, since it seems we sometimes have to bludgeon the point home.....

All the donor is saying is "take a few seconds out of your otherwise incredibly valuable life and drop me a line letting me know what's going on with my stuff". I dont think that's terrible. I dont think that's a huge impediment.

Yes, it's annoying that Rosity cant find some other way to make the distinction of commercial and non-commercial, but when you consider that "commercial" can mean anything from "you can sell it as is and I dont care" to "yes you can make for-pay textures for it" to "yes you can use it in any work that gives you a few bucks" - those are three very different levels of how "commercial" is viewed around here.

So the donor looks at this and thinks, "Okay, I dont mind commercial work done with my stuff; just let me know so I can, in essence, make sure that whatever youre gonna do isnt gonna get me into trouble in the process". I dont think that's a huge inconvenience, sorry. A little paranoid sometimes, but some folks are. And yeah, maybe the donor should have said something to that effect in the "details" tab since the other one is, yes, pretty limiting. You're not being stopped from using it in commercial work. You just have to ask permission, which is probably gonna be pretty easy. And as to why you should have to ask, wel, that's just one of those things that we have to deal with sometimes when we get things for free. There aint no free lunch most times. Is honouring one tiny little request in the process of usage so terrible?
