If we want new and innovative models, we need to support both the designers and the publishers.

For example: I bought my I-400 model in 1:400 scale from the designer for $24.95 and had it enlarged to 1:200 at my own expense (5 pages at $20.00/page, plus tax).

I may well have the world's most expensive paper model, but at least I have done it legitimately

IMHO, piracy sux.

Not all offerings on 4shared are pirated. People do store model files there that are legitimate.
These bus files seem to be legit.

Since the 4shared download age is a direct link from
the Designer's page, the Buses Should be considered Legal.
I just have a problem being told I HAVE to sign up with an
account now to download them.
Last time I downloaded from there, I did not.

Same anger I have with g@@g!3 forcing me to use a "G"
account to sign in to a Pre-existing YouTube account!!
That AIN'T Gonna Happen!!!!

I am not saying Don't visit the designer's site, Just show me
a way to contact them to ask them politely to try to find a
Different storage/download site.
I do believe that eventually there will be enough drop in
downloads that many will change on their own
I do not care if the site Limits me to 2 or so models in one hour
using the Free/unregistered option, I just refuse to join a
storage/download site like that to have them hit me up for
advertising spam!!

I do have accounts on places like that, but only for Off-line storage.
I Lost all of that in one shot when Mega-Upload was taken down, so I
have Nothing IN any of the leftover accounts.
