Re-reading the initial post in this thread there is one section I disagree very strongly with. I as well as others like to protect our rights on our products and when someone uses it in a comercial production thats going to be using it more then for a simple image, yes I reserve the right, as well as anyone else who sells a product Simple image? Sorry, that really does need to be clarified because this is what I would call "highly restrictive" and defeats the whole issue of purchasing an item. Commercial restrictions of this magnitude should IMO be limited to freestuff only. Purchased items should not, ever have a more than simple image restriction attached. Imagine if Adobe sold Photoshop and then told the users that they couldn't sell or use commercially ANY image created with it. They'd go bankrupt. Commercial images do not, unless it's for some backwoods kiddie comic that isn't ever going to be sold further than Aunt Bessie's farmyard chicken coop, ever manage to remain "simple". Sorry everyone, I missed that word "simple" when I read this the first time.
