Thingiverse had changed the site to not allow downloads if an adblocker is in use. Because of this, I can no longer download the models linked in the Palette’s documentation. Where can I get the models from other than Thingiverse?

Hi @edboston, sorry about the inconvenience with the Thingiverse download. I will email you the zip folder for the calibration files, using the email you provided here on the support website.

I appreciate you sending the files, but this doesn't address the underlying issue. Mosaic should not be depending on 3rd party sites to host YOUR files. You have your own website so why aren't you hosting them here? The problem with the AdBlocker on Thingiverse was a lot more serious that first thought. They broke the side so no one, even without AdBlockers, could download anything. This is common for Thingiverse. It seems there is no dedicate staff to maintain the site and they often push out changes that have not been tested. When someone clicks a link on your support pages to download a file, it should link to your website, not a third-party site where you have no control of. There is no guarantee the files haven't been altered or something else added that you don't wish to be associated with.
PLEASE start hosting YOUR support files on YOUR website.
