[QUOTE="DaveMage, post: 1592664, member: 10447"] Possibly - but I would not contact Microsoft were I to compose a published work in Word - even if I used the clipart. Indeed. I would argue that if I were a small-time publisher, this is precisely what I would expect. Would it be something as nice as a graphic designer could come up with? Probably not. But this product passes itself off as making "professional-looking" maps - so why not use it as such? Absolutely! Which is why the software [B]purchase price[/B] should be set to an appropriate level - and the art packs have an additional charge for them. The people at ProFantasy (who make CC) don't seem to have had this problem. And the response would be, of course, why should I buy your maps if I can make them myself on Dunjinni? The problem is, as I stated above, that they really seem like cool people indivdually. I'd like to support their product. It looks gorgeous. I just don't like such limitations on usage of software I purchase. [/QUOTE]
