Hey folks!

I know i am new and that's why my post should be important!  ::)

Can you please enable non-registered users to download files from the site? It is just unnecessary extra page loads for me. I don't think it reasonable to require registration for downloading files anyways.
I did sign up because i wanted to post / comment on the site, i had no idea i can download anything.

Thanks! :)

It seems 100% necessary. Otherwise, SPAM BOTS EVERYWHERE!!!
