Wow! I was just thinking about this issue before coming into the forums. The lines definately are blurred by what is actual commercial usage. I certainly believe that images made from the item should be freely used. As others in the thread have indicated - to sell the item outright would be wrong. I mean, I would be honored if someone used a free model, morph or texture that I made. Plus, if you offer free and for-sale items, wouldn't free items (especially the good ones) be a teaser. Who wouldn't want the advertising? This is assuming that credit is given. For example, the free items offered at Runtime DNA have caused me to purchase several of their store items. Furthermore, is commercial use only paid-for-work. What if you do a charity illustration or self-publish a free article/story/roleplaying game/cartoon?
