Things like the obstacle course that the new Freestuff area has become are a pain in the neck, but I sort of understand why it happened. All sorts of companies are under financial pressure and there's a real need, on their part, to monetize areas - especially web-based areas - that are free.

But we all know that there's no such thing as free. Being advertised at is, sadly, the price you have to pay to access all this 'free' stuff. Expect to see a lot more of it, in all sorts of places, over the coming months and years.

If the purpose of this site was to provide free forums, free galleries and access to free content, it is way too complicated. But it's a business, and businesses have to make money to survive, grow and prosper. With that in mind, Renderosity have got the balance about right, IMO.
