is just another way you are alienating your user base! I am crushed! For YEARS I have had my "Lyne's Creations" freebies linked here... NOTHING for sale, just on my website...and now it's "illegal"... I would never upload my freestuff to create "forced" (ie: people HAVE to be a member and sign in to download) traffic to YOUR website.

Having my freebies PERMANENTLY on my own web site (even after I die!) is a part of ME, my legacy and will remain with my website as long as my person(s) keep my website/legacy alive for me... I've supported Renderosity for a VERY VERY long time and slowly you have been choking our freedoms here down... being so SELF-CENTERED... pretty soon you will remove any gallery image with any MENTION (UN-LINKED name only credit) of another store... and chasing more of us away...

I feel sick... my freebies have been a source of joy....and I've carefully linked the item under a gallery image to MY section here and felt so proud of it...and sent people here, visiting YOUR forum- encouraging, thanking me, CARING ABOUT HOW I'M DOING... showing appreciation...

Well, I'm now THIS close to removing myself COMPLETELY from YOUR ISOLATED WORLD... I've been here since 2002 for heaven's sakes!!! "Live linking" in 95% of the cases to YOUR store items, supporting you... I have a link to YOUR website on my own front page, have had for years!!!! (will remove it today) and seriously consider removing my entire HUGE gallery.

Thanks a lot Rendo, for being so self serving and hard hearted!! I'm angry and I'm hurt!

Life Requires Assembly and we all know how THAT goes!
