We all know that great 3D content comes from dedicated artists who work tirelessly to bring their creations to life.  They may be following their creative muse, but their earnings from the sale of their products can greatly enhance quality of life for the artists and their families.  In some cases, talented artists can achieve their dream and pursue the creation of 3D content as a full-time job.

Illegal file sharing and online piracy undermine these dreams by removing the financial incentive. To support our artists and ensure an ongoing supply of great 3D content, Renderosity dedicates staff time to copyright awareness and seeking out sites or members illegally distributing or using 3D products.  Renderosity files DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) claims on behalf of our vendors, and we also work to help educate vendors on how to file claims for themselves.  In addition to our own efforts in this area, we also follow legislative action that will likely affect the 3D Industry.

Please see the front page article (linked above) to read more information about the US legislation.
