MKeyes, I’m sorry (and a little surprised) to hear that you do not believe Renderosity is Top and that the promotion seemed unclear, since you are a vendor here at Renderosity and we notified vendors of all the details by email and vendor forum post last week.  I realize that if those posts were missed, along with our article and Marketplace banner, that the sidebar may have been the source of confusion for some. Thank you for pointing it out, so we could correct that.  I added the “with purchase” info in the sidebar to avoid anyone else being confused.

If we’re going to be compared to other sites, then I hope you would consider all the ways Renderosity gives away free stuff without a purchase required; (i.e. the nearly 25, 000 FreeStuff items we have, the tens of thousands of dollars we give away in Gift Certificates, the newsletters Freebies, and the several weeks out of every year that our vendors donate top quality items around the holidays, surveys, etc that all can be download without going through a check-out process).  We are different than other places, but I think that's a good thing.

I hope your site preference will not stop you from participating in our upcoming surveys that help us continually improve our community.

Best Regards,
Jenifer
