A very scary thing goes on at Renderosity. Well, not that scary, but freaky non the less, and could prove to be quite annoying to say the least. If you share links with friends to items from Renderosity, BE SURE to check the link before sending it. The links should look something like this: http://market.renderosity.com/softgood.ez?ViewSoftgood=35052 Make sure to check the end of your URL's before you copy them to share. Make sure that if you see "SessionID" that you remove everything from that point, including SessionID. For example: http://renderosity.com/index.ez?Form.sess_id=###&Form.sess_key=### You would remove everything after (and including) the question mark (?) Thankfully a very good friend of mine and myself discovered this while trading links to products we thought the other would like to see or purchase. What is the problem you ask? Well, my friend logged into her account and was browsing the item links I sent her. When I found something I knew she would be interested in, I would send her the link (including the sessionID part) She liked some of the items and proceeded to add them to her cart. But guess what? When I checked MY cart, the items for the links I had sent her had been added to MY cart!! She checked her cart... NO ITEMS! The SessionID actually logged her into my account without her even having to provide my log in information! So, be sure to check your Renderosity URL before sharing them. Even gallery images. Maybe this is something that can be fixed? I don't know.
