I think of it this way. Anything I make is an ELEMENT in the whole thing. It's not a major part. It doesn't MAKE the scene, it just is part of it. My image above illustrates the many elements that go into a scene. I have images (Sheowan series) for example that has upwards of 100 props, textures, characters and such. I try to credit what I can but I can't always do that. anything that is downloaded from freestuff is an element in any scene, it's not the WHOLE scene. And to those who cry "GREEDY" No i am not. I admire the work that was done, I admire the craftmanship the time and the effort that went into making it. but it's not the whole damned image. Fyrespyrt said I'm not trying to tell anyone what they can do with their art; I'm telling them what they can do with mine. I don't argue with that but then that attitude is why I WON'T Download any of her fantastic work. I won't use it. I admire it from a distance. and that's all, but she is wrong that she's not telling anyone what they can do with their art. She is. If I rendered an image and someone saw it, wanted it. I would make sure nothing that i used had restrictions against that. now i find out, yes there is one with the item there. Now I have to tell that someone no i can't sell it. Even though Fyrespryt would never know about it. its the principal of the thing. and in the end nothing is gained. I lost a sale. She lost the ability to share her work with even more people. not just here on the forums but r/t as well. No one thinks of the greater scheme of things. no one thinks of if their work will outlast them. And isn't that what we want as artists? For our work to be remembered? /end rant
