Merchant Resources?

RitaCeleste

I love morph packs!  I know some merchant resources say not for use on freebies.  Is this standard now?  There use to be a way to package a character morph and the other person had to own the morph pack to use the character, but you could share the character morphs made with packs in this way.  I have never shared anything but I wondered if it would be possible to do this.  I'd rather not try to do skins or sell characters.  I am just enjoying learning to make characters and would like to share something.  The character morph with no textures, kinda bring your skin, seems like it should be doable.  But I'm not sure. 

I don't wish to be a merchant and sell full, skinned characters with handbuilt custom morphs.  Mostly I just play with the dials and worry about the skin I decorate for my own use.  The two morph sets I have now are Thorns and RareStone's and product by Zev, the 200 face morphs and shapeshift. but was looking at the EJ sets too.  Is this always going to me alone at home playing with stuff I bought and maybe sharing a render of my work? 

I like making shaders but I buy seamless tiles to work from and ofcourse, I'd have to bake the textures onto outfits so I wouldn't be sharing the tiles in the shader itself.  I am just not a money maker, I am a money disappearer.  Sharing seems like it shouldn't hurt me financially at least.  I like making stuff but trying to make money just gets me into debt some how, some way.  It just seems so risky to do anything at all with not wanting to mess up on what is or isn't allowed.  I'm not new, but I am new to actually getting anything actually done besides shopping I guess.

A shaping preset will store the morph values but not the morphs, so those can generally be freely shared.

Thanks!  I think it will make me work harder on the character if I intend to let other people see them and use them.
