I can't help but be amazed at the repetition of the comment "if it says no commercial use I delete the file"... Has it never occurred to you people to ask? The larger majority of people who provide files have no problem with letting you use these things in renders commercial or otherwise. Some don't allow it, the majority do. What is the problem with spending a few seconds of your life to mail and ask. You might be amazed at how many people would appreciate that. The non-commercial use is primarily aimed at preventing people from using the files in store items. ie SELLING them on for profit that is not earned. The exact thing that has been happening and is happening. It's easier to just write "no commercial use" than to quantify it with different levels of "use". Just ask. A few seconds to send a mail and a few hours depending on time zone to get a reply. Shesh, if people can't plan their projects accordingly and are pushed by deadlines so tight they can't mail someone then get out of the business now while you still have some hair left. Sheesh. Where on earth did simple common decency ever go? ::wanders off incredulously::
