Just a small rant but I hate that sites allow you to upload a STL without a picture of an actual printed model. It is dumb that you can make an image of it in photoshop or whatever software which you can tell is fake. I think you should have to print and take a picture. I think it would also help stop the AI posters that don’t flag their models as AI. Least makes it take longer for them to post.
Thanks for reading my Ted talk.
You can always not use those sites and/or only print the ones that have picture and ignore the others. People are offering hours if their work for free (including a bunch of prototypes and wasted plastic you never see), including licensing them sometimes very generously, and you come complaining that there isn’t a picture? If you can’t look at a model you won’t be able to tell if the uploaded pictures are from the same version of the model uploaded.
