Hi friends, Alcide posted this link:

http://arcadiazone.page.tl/Poser-Files2.htm

it seems to me that the link go to contents illegally shared, for example it looks that daz is still selling "The Freak" here for 39 bucks

http://www.daz3d.com/i/3d-models/-/the-freak?item=1681&_m=d

while on that site there is a link where it can be downloaded for free... Your opinion please  

(poor Alcide, he is in bona fide but sometimes he causes some troubles to the site ...

____________

I think Alcide is doing this all in good friendship
rather than screwing DAZ. He might or may not
be aware of what he is looking at. There are free things
out there. I would just tell him in a PM that if he
wants to do this out of friendship then PM his friends
to share the so called freeware. That should
take care of everything.   I hope.

Ok Kenny, I know Alcide doesn't make it intentionally, what I would know if that site is ok or not ...

Ok this is my two cents on this and then everyone else can
join in. First of all the tag or link just sends you to Renderosity. That
in itself is fine. It is the persons call to go to the site should he or she
want to go any further. If Alcide just seen the picture on the free
stuff at R'osity ,then he doesn't know about the site with all its illegal
stuff. This site can not be responsible for going to another
site such as Renderosity. But if you say and target the site that
has the illegal stuff then it is a problem with Posetteforever.    
To make a long story short He sent us to Renderosity's Free Stuff. It
is up to us at that point weather we want to go any further.

I also found some links for this site on  Renderosity's Free Stuff Area! In the truth I found the site there for the first time! I think that Alcide was wanting to share the to "ArcadiaZone Vehicle Collection" with us. He probably did not know anything about the illegal stuff.

A agree with Kenny that is better PM Alcide explaining the situation and is someone asks anything about it all of we know is that "He find the link on the Renderosity's Free Stuff Area and wanted to show the  "ArcadiaZone Vehicle Collection" to us!"

It is better don't show the link here!

All the rest they must ask to Karen James the links still on her site!

Here we go!

I asked directly at DAZ, I also PMed to Alcide (in Italian...). This is strange, because the artist should be a well known one.

I know that Daz gives away things for free, but only for a limited time, actually that "The freak" is sold for 39$, while on that site is given a link for the free download, that probably is the link of the period where they gave it for free, but I don't think it's ok to share it after the limited time offer is finished.

In any case, I'm prone to give the link a go, maybe modifying it in order to point directly to the car collection

____________

I went to the link ( a few days ago, to get the "Vehicle Collection"), I'm ashamed to say that I saw the other items on the page; but assumed that they were advertisments for DAZ products.
After revisiting, I see that is not the case...; I agree that the site is promoting, and distributing illegal DAZ products. {The links go to Depositfiles.com, a free file hosting site. I am currently downloading one of the items (that I already own) to see if it really is the product described on the freebie page.}

Well...;

1.) The file I attempted to check is corrupted; so I can't be sure of what is inside.

2.) The "Vehicle Collections" seem very similar to autos available at DMI.chez.fr. (I'll check them more closely in a little while.)

My suggestion:

Do Not post the link on PosetteForever.

Thanks friends, Alcide thought it was a "clear" link because he found it on Renderosity, he PMed me that the link has been removed from Rosity. Obviously, I never thought that Renderosity is the gospel, so I stopped the link.

I'll check the vehicles collection (tnx Whazizname   , I knew you're the master of the cars   ), if they are the same vehicles we'll use your link instead

I restored the link, look at the discussion in the forum
