If I give away something, it becomes the property of the person I gave it to. period. If I sell a painting to you I don't complain about where you hang it. I don't complain about who you show it to, or sell it to, or give it to. If you want to keep something as yours, don't give it away. If you want to control who gets it, send it to that person directly, don't post it on the web. Do I complain when one of my drawings or paintings gets posted to a newsgroup or a website? only if someone erases my signature and puts their own in. (hasn't happened yet) Do you also complain about how your models are used? let's say someone uses your model in an obscene image.. in an image that you would be totally opposed to.. do you have any say so in that? no, because you gave it away. Also, why cut the guys throat because one model's owner is peeved? perhaps there are ten people whose models appear on that page who appreciate the link..... perhaps not..... but should the guys entire website be taken down when you could easily remove that one model from your end. You guys remind me of the commercially obsessed individuals who want to charge for porn that is and has been free and floating around on the net for years. If I downloaded an image 50 times from newsgroups since 1995 I certainly don't want to pay some webmaster or avs to see it again. hrrrmmmph. If it bothers you that your model is floating around the net you shouldn't have put it there to begin with. The internet is about "free exchange of information" ... and information includes 3d models. Don't publish something as a "free" item if it's not free!
