I'll have to throw you back: that hook was baited for bass, not minnows. > Quote - "First of all, the artists were compensated when their work was licenced. EF apologized for their screwup, and is going to put a disclaimer up." - MorriganShadow

I've actually spoken with a few of the artists involved. It is true that their work was lisenced for promotional use - by CuriousLabs, now defunct. As Moyra pointed out. This isn't a first, as even a cursory following of the history of the various poser companies shows. > Quote - "Anyway, thanks, Laslo, for coming in and clarifying. I'm sure it's very much appreciated.

If he'd clarified, I'm sure it would be. No makey. The history of both poserites and Renderosity staff for bending over backwards to excuse the business and ethical shenannigans of the companies producing their pet toy is at least as long as the history of those companies in committing those shenannigans. It's one of the great sources of amusement to be had in poserite watching. It is a pity that e-F seems to be following in the CuriousLabs model, rather than creating their own. splash. Catch and release completed. ;)

It matters, but only in the sense of increasing the already considerable amusement factor. ;] And I disagree: the forum staff is already pretty rich.

So... did you actually pay Renderosity for the opportunity to become half of a two-cent input? Perspiring minds would like to know.

Quote - We did not explain in the video that there was post-processing with some of the art or provided credit of the participating artists (although, as someone pointed out earlier in this thread, we did have signed releases from all the artwork). This was an (unintended) mistake.

Hrrm... > Quote - "I signed a form which allowed them to use my work, however, I am none too thrilled about having done this noiw, especially considering my work is being used without attribution.

Note that I never was remunerated in any way for allowing them to use my artwork (unnatributed, too!). I never even got a copy of the software." - Elusion

So, Laslo Vespremi, Director of Strategic Marketing, was the unrenumeration, lack of attribution, and lack of crediting and compensation to the artist who's work you lisenced "unintended" also? There's nothing "unintended" in anything that goes into an ad design or marketing campaign. They're planned down to the tiniest detail to elicit and invoke a response and reaction from the viewer. Pull the other one. It's got bells on. I had hoped that e-F marked a change in the ownership of poser. Looks increasingly like I was wrong in giving the benefit of the doubt: only difference going from CuriousLabs to e-Frontiers was a change in names and companies, not in practices.

Cool. I'm the poster formerly known as "Ironbear". I'm changing my usernick to "Ironbear". Do try to not use my old one if you can help it. Might get confusing for people. rolls eyes, hands Arcadia another Post-It Note ;)

"you guys took it down again or was it hit again already?" - dasquid Yes.

ahem Just out of curiousity... did you guys ever find Bushi? (o0)

I am I am. very proud. And I still think you're a pod person. Just a pod person that's a complete prat. ;]p~

"It seems a reasonable bet that the number of times I've been thrown out of here is more than the number of years you were a Renderosity moderator. I think I'm still ahead in the old street-cred game ;-)" - PJF

If street cred's based on how often we've been booted, old chap, you're WAY ahead. I've never been banned from anywhere that I can recall. ;]p~ Heh. I remember when you got thrown out for complimenting a moderator. ;) Now you're... being.... helpful. Fess up. Where's the real PJF, and what have you done with him? > "The gallery solution is cool, is it not? Regardless of the corporate posturing by Rendo." - PJF

I haven't looked at it, so I'll take your word on the "cool". Aside from being amused watching the Corporate Posturing, I really don't have much interest in Rendo's galleries or their forums any longer. I'm just finding the member's reactions and the staff's responses passingly amusing. ;] [Not just Rendo: I seem to have very little interest in much of the various sites these days: rendo, Daz Forums, Poserpros, 3DC... where-ever. shrug] Hrmm... "PJF. Helpful." waitaminnit... you're setting Tim up for something, huh? Never mind - I'll get out of your way and wait for the eventual explosion - from a safe distance.

"We didn't use phpBB. We designed our own forum software." - williamsn

You wrote a php codeset to do what this siteware does from scratch? And you wrote it to do these things in this fashion... on purpose? That's... rather frightening, in so very many ways.

Yeah! There's no telling what they could break this time! ;) They have to leave something for the Company BBQ in September.

You would need rabies shots afterwards. ;)
