Quote - Why would I punish myself by not buying a product I can use, because I disagree with the ideas and opinions of the vendor? I read their explanation, shrugged, and bought the product. I can't convert the textures for myself without it. I have about 100 textures for more than a dozen different figures compatible with TC2. I can’t afford to buy drow, racial, or distinctively different textures for all of them. I buy stuff from websites that have products that I do not appreciate. Most of you would laugh at me if I passed up a good product because some of the products in a store made me uncomfortable. What would you advise me to do? Grow up.It is as morally arrogant to judge some one else for what they choose not to do, as it is for them to judge you for what you choose to do. That applies whether people call themselves artists or not. This is simply not a pivotal civilization busting issue. I think many people in this thread feel judged and rebuked, which might not actually be the case, and you don’t like it. I don’t feel judged, and I wouldn’t care if I had been.

I don't really do nudes myself, but I don't care if other people do, nor condemn them. I can appreciate good artwork without being embarrassed over nudity.

So by your own admission you have no need for toast and do have need for neutered textures. That's fine and dandy for you, but what about the rest of us who do need toast to go with the whole loaf when we render? We're supposed to fork over our hard earned dough to someone who not only judges us, but refuses to offer the complete package? I think not. As for it being morally arrogant for me to judge them in reverse, who said I was doing that by not paying for their services? I think it's pretty morrally arrogant of you to judge people who need their toast for not buying a package that doesn't provide it.
