Don't know if it's the right place for this kind of question ...
In my opinion Sculpt maps are different from textures, they are more like prims, they are shapes more than textures. A prim to be full perm need all permissions, but a sculpt map can in my opinion be full perm even if don't have the mod permission ... you put it in a full perm prim the map give the shape and the prim stays full perm.
I am asking this becouse I noticed that it's against the TOS of all web market service to call a no mod map "full perm".

Full perm means full perm, as in all the permission boxes checked.
If you want to sell a sculpty full perm but not let the purchaser see the map, then put it into photoshop and add an alpha layer to make it transparent and/or put a logo on it.

What they said. No mod = not full perm.
You can sell a SCULPTED PRIM full perm with the map hidden, if it's the map you are worried about.
But if you sell a SCULPT MAP and call it full perm and it's no mod, that's gonna get you loads of hate mail.

I think that it's useless to hide them using an alpha channel, if the map is full perm, you can dowload it to your hard drive.
The only difference I see is that no mod maps can't be downloaded.

You do realize setting the map no mod means the object would then be no mod, even to the creator. Nobody is going to want that.

Don't know if before was different but now the no mod permission of a map do not change the permissions of a prim using that map. Try to give a no mod map to an alt, if he use it in a full perm prim, the prim do not change no modify.

I am always so baffled by the effort people put into adding these paranoid permissions to protect their works from some perceived idea of mass product theft of their item once released. If someone really likes your product, and i mean likes it a lot, and your perms are just a hassle, they may just buy your product, CopyBot it to get full perms, and mod it how they want.
If you are going to make it difficult for the consumer - it would be best you just do not put the product(s) on the market.

I know that all could be replicated in SL, I don't care about l$ losses if someone use opensource clients to replicate my work, I never cashed out and I only use l$ to have fun in SL.... I think SL is a way to relax from boring real life problems, I only told that a no mod map is full perm, and they crucified me.

Well a "no mod" map cannot be "full perm" since "full perm" = Copy / Mod / Transfer - Full Permissions.

You should see over a checkered permission
You want no problems for customers.
All full perm and all free to be reselled ... no permissions no need of l$ no need of land.
But how can Linden lab can survive if no one need to buy l$?

Oh there is a huge difference. When i buy full perm sculpt map packs (Thank you Cel and other producers), i download all those suckers to my hard disk, just in case LL decides someone has raped the system wrongly and removes their sculpty content UUIDs. I do not know what limitations if any a NO MOD sculpt map has on one's objects after being applied. I think it comes down to principle: No Mod = Not Full Perm A Blow Job = sexual relations
