Interesting discussion. I will debate what to do and in the mean time take it off.

Hi, no one is forcing you to upload a design you made. But to make a design entry should mean exactly that. Simply seizing this feature as a marketing opportunity is against the spirit of sharing that we embrace on YouMagine. Exactly because we would like to see people benefit from sharing through feedback, encouragement, and praise, we recently also added donations. This means that after sharing something that becomes popular you might start to earn some money of of it. After a download, a person gets triggered to donate through paypal.me or another platform. Please add this to your profile to use this option.

You can either use this option or decide to remove this design posting. I hope for your understanding!

P.s. You can also link to your 3DHubs profile in the description to encourage people to spend some money with you.

No offense, you just left the kid in me disappointed when I found out I was not able to download the design. But for the sake of arguments. I think if you want to exploit YouMagine to sell your design and not share it, I suggest take it offline here and put it on another platform. And put it here when you are ready.

If you read my text literally it says I will publish it.

This is the first time I can make some money with printing, so I have to see how things work.

If you are really offended we can discuss about it and if the arguments are good I will remove the photo's.

I read in the information thaty you don't want to publish the design... "Currently I'm selling some, later I will publish the 3D files for everyone's use.". I think your design is awesome and I'm teased by it. But if you don't want to publish it here, don't put it here.... This is all about sharing stuff.
