Well, for what it's worth, I agree with Orange Brat. I can't see what harm there is in posting new models for sale here. I also agree that it fits the dictionary definition of "contribution" well enough. I like to know about the availability of these things. For those trolling for freebies, it only takes a second to check it and move on.
Regards,


Jim

I'm fine with commercial contributions, but things like "STAY AWAY IF U SHORT ON $!" are a bit misleading, and you're going to surely get people complaining. You're better of approaching it more conservatively if you post in this forum, otherwise try in General Tools or Jobs Wanted.

I favor practical organization. I'm not claiming that users don't have the right to post products in the "User Contributions" category, nor am I arguing whether or not the definition of "contribution" partially validates that right. I don't think that a system that mixes "free contributions" and "commercial products for sale" is optimally organized. If I am searching for quality "commercial" products for sale for independent developers, maybe I don't want to wade through incomplete or inferior freebies of less than "commercial" quality. Alternately, maybe I am on a strict budget and am merely browsing through "freebies", perhaps, because I hope I might find something that might be useful later. I may not want to search through "commercial" products for sale when searching for freebies. I think that maybe the items might be more properly organized with two thread categories, something similar to: "Free User Contributions" and "User Products for Sale".

I think that the majority of the items in "User Contributions" are free, so there might be certain assumptions. Regardless as to actual intentions, people don't like to feel fooled, temporarily or otherwise. Some individuals might feel fooled when clicking on what they may have thought was a "free contribution" but was instead, an "advertisement for a product". This might be similar to selecting an item for reading which looks like normal email correspondence, but is actually spam.

If I was searching for quality "commercial" resources to purchase, I probably wouldn't even bother searching in the "User Contributions" thread category, unless I had accidently encountered items for sale when looking for freebies, which I remembered. In such a case, I would then have to wade through the "freebies" to find the actual product I remembered seeing accidently.

If you are searching for products to purchase, you may not want to waste your time searching through that which may be irrelevant.
If you are merely browsing for "freebies", you may not want to waste your time searching through that which may be irrelevant.

Of course, it may be in the interests of those that are selling products to post "advertisements" everywhere possible.

Maybe there should be a "marketplace" Section.. so this sort of mix up can be weeded out in the future..

Nice models.. but typically Contributions is for donated stuff. Just sayin.. it is what it is.

what do you mean back to the models? I mean every one has been ontopic.. besides this isnt the showcase forum to be talking about the models..
Either a thank you or "awesome" would be on topic.. but in this case "costs too much" or "why isnt this free" also is on topic

I agree, let's make a sticky with exactly this rule in it ...

(For this particular thread, the "stay away if u short on $" already gave away it's intentions though, so I don't really understand the complaints here ..)

The models are nice, but at the moment I don't need them,

Edit: I've just looked around a bit on your site, but the abs of that male are off, his six pack ends way up near his ribs, that's very unreal hehehehe...

Cheers
