So...if I get this right, if people don't join your website...by 01/01/02...no one else will ever be able to join? And...that if we ever wanted to buy any of your products, to do it now, because after 01/01/02, no one will ever be able to buy any of those products ever again? I guess I can kinda/sort of understand your Noah's Ark attitude of get on the boat now, or else...given the fact people are buying your products, then giving it away for free. Yet, it seems that this situation comes down to two ways; pull all your product out, so it can never be purchased and you make no money at all, and none of us get to enjoy your textures...Or, sell your product...have a few idiots pirate it...but still make some sort of profit, and make your fans happy. I'm sorry your textures that you worked so hard on were given away (gratis), but it unfortunately is something that every company has run into with the internet. I have no sympathy for the pirates, I'm just trying to make sense out of you not wanting to sell anything at all, and wanting to seal up the membership to your website as to never have new members. Or, at least new members won't get your textures you decide to release. Tell me, if someone wants to join after 01/01/02, and you have no product to purchase, much less at a discount, and they don't get your free textures...why join at all? I wonder if any of this will alienate your fans? I feel it is unfortunate that you have decided all of this. Renderosity doesn't have many members who are actual 3D artists in real life. Most of us are just hobbyists/wannabe's. As far as I am concerned, you basically are a leader in making Poser textures look more realistic, while we were struggling to make our P4 figures look better than monotone P3 figures, you had already done your Sean Connery character. It is unfortunate Renderosity will not have you around like it once did. Maybe I'm just upset because I know I cannot afford your products or website before 01/01/02. Good Luck Agent Smith
