It's Renderosity Trick or Treat!

How do you get YOUR bag full of free stuff? Enter the door below to gain entrance to the Trick or Treat Department and start loading up on stuff today!

Enter quickly, for you only have until October 31st, Halloween at 11:59pm CST system time before these freebies vanish into the night!

A FIVE DOLLAR minimum purchase in the Renderosity MarketPlace lets you walk away with free items in your basket. It's that easy! Check back daily, because an additional set of new freebies will be added next week.

This has to be the most outrageous thing I ever saw, putting a pricetag on items the creators intended to be free for the entire community. Note that this applies for EVERYONE, even those that have spent sufficient amounts on the site in the past.

If your servers cannot handle the free giveaway, then don't advertise it and then slap a five dollar required purchase onto it to lower the bandwidth this way!!

Thus far, out of the three pages that were available on the site, an entire page has been taken down by their respective creators and I sincerely hope more will follow their example.
