I'm very saddened to see the passing of Trav and his site. I agree wholeheartedly with all the good things said about him above. Unfortunately it seems to be a sign of the times that most people are now trying to make a few (or a lot) of bucks out of Poser. In the halcyon days of two or three years ago nearly everything on the web was offered free. There was a true spirit of comradeship in the community - even though there were a few flame wars. Nowadays just about every site has an online store. So far I've managed to resist parting with my money to any of them and I've also resisted the temptation to charge for any of my stuff. Objaction Mover is free for non commercial use only. Some people who use it commercially have requested my permission which I have instantly given for free. These I could count on the fingers of one hand. I suspect there are others using it commercially without permission. Since I don't buy their stuff I have no way of knowing. I can understand how Trav feels, especially as it takes but a moment to ask.
