<<Applying that to people who restrict "freebies", how many do so based on religion?>> I do. So that's one. If I'm the only one, that's fine, but I'm not backing down. Not everyone would even call it "religious", but many people have deeply held personal beliefs that affect how they want their work used (or perhaps more accurately, not used), and that's their right. That means some of them may not want others to profit using their work, and that's their right too. Maybe we're not as generous as someone who puts up their stuff with no restrictions, but I think it's pretty nice to put up anything at all. We don't have to. Many people don't, and every time this conversation comes up I think it'd be easier not to. But many things in life worth doing are not easy. So, I guess it's coming down the the question of whether we're all just going to admit that we're not going to change each other's minds, move on, and go back to avoiding, sorting, or whatever else you do with freebies to keep track of what can be used where. I can promise you that I won't back down on my stuff. I come from a LONG line of stubborn Irish women; I can refuse longer than you can argue. (Heck, if you think I'm a bitch, you should meet my Grandmama. ^_~)
