FYI... dude selling Anim8or
« on: June 10, 2009, 03:13:46 pm »

I'm not sure if you're aware, but just thought I'd bring to your attention in case it violates your licensing policy, that this dude here is selling Anim8or:

http://www.3dmagix.com

He's really selling a re-branded Blender, but as part of his additional bonus features, you can pay more and also get a re-branded Anim8or which he calls "The Animator". You can see it in his screen grab as bonus software #1 in the "VIP Premium Package Option" here:

Thought you might like to know.

Per floyd's own message, he was just recreating someone else''s work. So, the real question is, is that e-bay image floyd's, or the original artist's?

By the way - model in Anim8tor screen is made in 3dsmax. I've seen it in old Polish 3D Magazine in article about spline modelling in 3dsmax (ver. 3 I think? ;) ) http://www.3d.pl/mag_art.cgi?nr=18&id=99 However I don't know who this model belong to.

It seems indeed that this guy is selling anim8or. I shall PM steve about the issue and then it's to him to decide what to do with it.

Arik is right, that not mine. It's the original work of Andre Kutscherauer. I just made a remake.
The picture on ebay is the original work.

Either Steve or the Blenderheads. They've been raising hell about it on their site, too. What a loser! Hope that's the last we hear of him.

Oops, sorry Floyd86, I was under the impression that it was your version of the lightbulb on that page.

Yeah, that guy was just asking for trouble! :x

Honestly, who would do a thing like that!? I could go on ranting about this all day but I have to start a site to sell Anim8or on. :P JUST JOKING.

Anyway, he shouldn't have done that! I do hope that's the last wee see of him.
