they are no literature nor a picture - so I really don't know why they are copyrighted. no, theyre not. neither is a mesh - its just a series of numbers in a text file. just like a light set. they are both data, and data - if its not in the public domain - is highly copyrightable. like i said, id appreciate if you folks would not use my issue as the basis of a discussion on copyright theory and wether or not you approve of the corrent copyright laws. youre welcome to start your own thread in the copyright forum on this - but understand that every post here you are affecting MY issue - which is a serious one. i hope that when someone starts to rip you off that you dont find yourselves in the same situation.
