Ajax: "3. Ron's spawned character morphs. Ron, if you used any of the Mike 2 morphs as an "ingredient" in your "recipe" of morphs prior to spawning your full body morph, then LadySilverMage is correct and you are very much in violation of DAZ's EULA. They're quite clear about that and always have been, as the two quotes you've provided show./" Nope, sorry, DAZ was not very clear on that topic, or I wouldn't have done what I did. That's very simple. *** Mehndi: "There are no different rules for distribution available to DAZ brokers than to any other store as far as what is allowed to be distributed." WRONG. DAZ will allow you to sell a bodysuit that will make Mike 1 look like Mike 2 if you have an exclusve relationship with DAZ. However, DAZ won't let you give away or sell such a bodysuit elsewhere. *** FishNose: "So stop being so darn neurotic. And if you want to sell stuff that is add-on to DAZ products, fine - but READ and UNDERSTAND the agreements and conditions, don't just take a chance. If you have trouble interpreting it all, then fine, ask a lawyer or some other person in the know to explain it to you. If you don't fully understand the conditions, you are at risk, regardless of the market you're in, the type of products you're selling." Maybe DAZ and others could make an effort to be more understandable? Isn't that why they have an FAQ, and why they come into Renderosity and PoserPros, and make an effort to talk to us? "Neurotic?!" Hardly. Oh, and just why didn't DAZ have the common sense or decency to voice their objections to The Tailor before we spent our money on it, and before we distributed things which are now potentially illegal? And why did DAZ wait until after they had exclusive selling rights to The Tailor to announce their policy? And why is it ok to distribute said offending products only if you have an exclusive arrangement with DAZ? If Mike 1 can pretend to look like Mike 2, DAZ is still losing a potential sale... But it's ok if DAZ profits from that theft?! So you see your little lesson on the world economy doesn't hold much water.
