I got serious hate mail, about my software thats free to download for everyone That is truly sad. Hate mail and threats to a guy that's provided a free tool and free quality work? I just can't understand why someone would think it's okay to do that. wtf . _____________________

Sad, triste, really a sad question

First at all, sorry for my bad english. I used the fantastic Cel Edman¡¡s tool, and others fantastics plugins like the SculptGenMax, of Shack Dougall, and wih a deep feeling of appreciation to all the designers who generously provide us with the tools to help us develop our creativity.
I do not charge for my SL's creationes, only recover costs for upload textures and accept what I do because I enjoy seeing how other more creative, change and improve my works well and learn from them. Without the generous tools from Cel, Shack, tutorials from Vlad and a lot more of people than give us their talent, all of us lost. SL lost beauty, creativity, and only criminals (for me that is the adjetive), win. |

Even though I don't really use Sculpty Paint to make stuff, I most certaintly appreciate Cel's efforts. I even threw some pocket change his way a few times just for being a cool guy.
What I'm really having hard time comprehending is why anybody would send hate mail. I don't get it. Is it like an elitist thing where the lowly peons shouldn't be allowed to make scuplties with ease? Again, I don't get it. I hope this whole permission thing eventually gets solved. I doubt it will happen any time soon, but cheers anyways. Good luck with future endevors, Mr. Cel. ~tips sculptie hat~ |

Jet lag and lack of broadband is making me a bit crazy but....
It would be fabulous if when someone created an item it could be scripted to make the avatar of the person who fiddles with them grow a really huge arse and for it never ever to be changed back. Like Pinocchio's nose sort of. I was thinking of a behemoth size like the Kenny Everett impersonation of Rod Stewarts arse. For those non brits who dont have a clue what I mean... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IVfgnD-2XjM It need to be watched right to the end for the full impact. I think it would be best if I tried to sleep now. _____________________

Well was pretty crazy, mad and sad about the whole thing, hope I can leave all this crap behind me, and focus on the positive and general good people next.
Anyway put it back online, added latest version #092 tonight, and a new texture generator experiment I just started to work on. http://www.xs4all.nl/~elout/sculptpaint/ |

Its come to my attention that a decent programmer has chosen to close up shop. Cel Edman, creator of SculptyPaint. I did since december 2007. I focus more on scripting and less on moddelling. as long as its opengl its open. cry more please. |

I know I appreciate it - I only play with sculpties - and have used your program to create a few things that I could easily create without doing it on the expensive programs ... I'm not a serious sculpter ... I'm really glad you're not letting the "crap" keep you from moving forward. Thanks!! and ... mmmm ... there is an update group? =) Lelia Wakawaka |

Not Quite What Happened

Mental Mentors regularly distributes freebie items that members have found. Of course I can't absolutely guarantee that no member of MM would have wilfully distributed the textures, but most likely, somebody has mistaken it for a freebie once the license terms were removed by someone else. I know that there are also some groups who deliberately give away the contents of BIABs just to prevent anyone making profit from the BIAB, by making that content obviously free. I agree that's controversial though. The Mental Mentor- co owner of the group in his "apology" stated: "AS far as I am concerned, I have done nothing wrong, full perms means just that, a notecard doesnt mean jack, it is simply the creators wishes, he elects to sell full perm things. anyway." He admits to buying it- and by his actions admits too removing the notecard |
