Anything I've paid money for had better give me commercial use rights. The author made their buck off of it and to prohibit commercial renders would be cruel. It would be like buying WordPerfect, writing a novel, then having Corel tell you you can't publish that novel commercially because you used their word processor to write it on. I have a real issue with folks who SELL an item, then won't let you use it for commercial renders without their written permission. Freebies, I can understand, but not things they've already made a profit on. That's a little bee in my bonnet. I remember seeing some software program, a plant generator or something, which the user had to pay for to get, yet there was a restriction that objects made from it could not be distributed or used in commercial renders. It was basically telling the user, "Pay for this great product that will do this great thing, but don't you dare try to use it!" shrug Melanie Having a small menopausal moment. LOL
