Quote - I can understand that renderosity need money to stay alive but is this an art comminity or 
or has renderosity become a marketplace only which aim is to make big profit .

Renderosity is owned by Bondware, which is a profit-making organisation and therefore it seems reasonable to expect that rendo will also have to return a profit - not just cover its costs. So rendo is in fact a business which as part of its added-value to build up its customer base also offers such facilities as forums, galleries, etc. But it's still a business.

Whether it started out that way I don't know - haven't been here long enough - but now it's a profit-making business. The community aspect is emphasised to attract new customers and keep them here in the hope that they'll buy something. Which they do.
