Fascinating discussion.

resource kits are the downfall of textures? what rubbish. Resource kits are how people who don't or can't model get their "dial-spun" characters into the market.

What I find truly bizarre is that people expect to pay $5 - 10 for the same things that a tattoo shop pays $100 or MORE.

and don't even get me started on quality and realism. Has anyone EVER seen a texture set with a properly made, hand-painted bump map? How about any map with no baked on artifacts?

The "raw materials" are the friggin problem! They need to be processed before use just like raw iron!

Sorry, I'm ranting and raving again, I'll climb off the soapbox now ....
