  2. Finally is it allowed to sell pics made in blender for online gaming items?

Another qs sry. Can it make stuff like on the blender site? In there banner. The crstalys and the tubes.

Blender is free, and you don’t need a license to use it. Just download and go, and put it on as many computers as you like.

The only applicable license is the GPL (and Blender License), which dictates what you must do if you modify the Blender program itself, but whatever you make with the program is yours to do with what you please. You don’t have to credit or acknowledge blender for your creations, but it’s always appreciated.

The older Blender 2.25 contained a game engine that has been disabled in subsequent releases. There may be some licensing issues involved in what you are able the game engine, but that doesn’t affect what you do with your models, scenes, or renders, and has no bearing on 2.28-2.31a (current version).

You could send me a check for 100 000 000 Euros if you want.
Otherwise the licence is GPL and the use of Blender is free, as in ‘freedom’ (a synonym of French accordingly to the good senator, but I don’t want to confuse you)

2.Can I just download blender with out having other stuff like 1.?

Just download it and use it. Be careful to follow the flow of updates (4 to 6 official a year or so and lots of snapshots (very recent changes in the source) if you like that kind of sport.)

3.I can make pics and turn them into forum signatures and banners? Is that ok or no?

Absolutely : don’t think twice about it and go ahead.

4.When I make a pic it is my pic and I dont need to say somthing about blender do i?

No although it would be nice…
Could you say hello to my grand’ma too ?
She’d appreciate it so much coming from a well mannered youg man like you.
(Hurry up d***it she’s 94 !)

5.Can I edit blender pics with other programs liek photoshop?

If you must. Learn about the Gimp if your interest is the Web.

  1. Finally is it allowed to sell pics made in blender for online gaming items?

It’s fine if you don’t do it on my street corner ! It’s my turf, my passers by !

Another qs sry. Can it make stuff like on the blender site? In there banner. The crstalys and the tubes.

I’d say that it can do a whole lot more that that man !
Be ready for some radical trip !
(Especially if you try to follow my grand’maaaaaaaaaa!
Wo!)

All in good humour :wink:

ok,thanks for answers. What game do you play online? or was it a joke?

Blender is so free, that if it were any more free, they would be paying you.

I played my bit of CounterStrike in my time but I never made pics like you intend to make.

I’m sure you’ll enjoy Blender and if you stick with it you’ll feel like you’re riding some fantastic wave.

Ciao

The admins ask that you do not use picures in your sig, although if it is small, they MAY allow it if you ask first.

Can you be a bit clearer ?
Like : who are you talking to or what sig and what picture ?
I must have missed a step somewhere…
