Merchants or artists can not tell us to give them credit. They can't forbid us from giving the product as a gift, etc.<<< Actually, they can. The part about credit - under the renderosity license agreement no merchant can require that. BUT if you bought a product elsewhere, or for certain freesuff items, check the EULA you purchased it under. You'd be surprised what slips in there, sometimes. Equally, under Renderosity's current system, the ONLY legal way to give a gift, is via the gift system. The license is non-transferrable. Which isn't to say most people would insist on the letter of the law...but that IS what the EULA says. If you purchse through some other site, or direct from the merchant, s/he can set any EULA s/he wants. Including banning gift-giving. The majority of the merchants here are pretty relaxed about all this. That doesn't mean those who aren't are in the wrong. For me, this is a hobby and a source of pocketmoney. For others it's a livelihood.
