It's just weird to think of a primitive geometry as being copyrighted.  :blink:  And it's not even a particularly good primitive.  The UV-mapping is terrible!  :lol:

I know I, and I'm pretty sure many others, have ended up embedding the ball.obj in .cr2 or .pz3 files which were shared, over the years, often embedded as geomCustom.  I guess we need to be careful about that.

Ball.obj is part of Poser and it is copyrighted. It is very simple mesh with terrible UV (what is not important, becasue it is never visible in rendering). I'm sure that Smithmicro does not mind to share it, but it is still illegal. I should know about it, because my wife is a patent attorney :) Sometimes we can do not care about copyright just like here - very simple primitive, easy to create with any modeling software - but it cannot be done in public thread.

SM does not losse anything if you share simple object, but renderosity lose reputation if it is used to sharig copyrighted materials. Sorry that I did it and thaks for help.

BTW - ballx.obj has the same size and position :)
