I think you're missing the point. This is a direct copy of a Vectric free project (http://www.vectric.com/cool-stuff/proje ... anger.html) and is in breach of the terms of use.davemartin88 wrote:Thanks for the link, will get it today!

Re: Found this on eBay
Xxray ... why do you say from Russia? The Ebay post shows the vendor is from USA.
EDIT ... ships from Moscow.
Astonishing lack of ethics wherever they are operating from.

Re: Found this on eBay
I suppose it depends on how much a design has to change to not be the same design. To me it's a blatant rip off but it's not 100% the same design so the seller would probably argue artistic license.

Re: Found this on eBay
Well, this isn't the first time my models and/or projects have been "shoplifted" and put on the market.
It is annoying alright, but very little can be done about it. I just move on a create more stuff. I think we're keeping slightly ahead of the shoplifters.
Oh, and Dave...I knew you were kidding! No worries!

Always best to use the winking emoji if you're being sarcastic. These days sarcasm is almost impossible to spot as the number of people who would say that and mean it is very large.davemartin88 wrote:It was supposed to be sarcasm but obviously didn't work!davemartin88 wrote:Thanks for the link, will get it today!
