Suggesting a rule for edits: - Cobalt Blue - 06-01-2009

If the user wants to post an edit or a recolor or any sprite, said person must post also a link to the original sprite whom he used as a base, and give proper credit if the sheet used was ripped by someone thats not him(incluiding non finished sheets).

seems a fair deal to me, and i don't think i have seen such thing in the general rules.

Zee agrees with this, it's only fair, since the rippers put a lot of effort into making those rips.

Seems like a good idea. That way we can gauge if it's a good edit or not.

I think it's more about the artists who originally made the sprites.

But yea, I agree with this.

Good idea in theory; no one's gonna remember in practice.

Besides, if it's a bad edit you can tell (in which case you might as well link it yourself)

Editing customwork without credit is pretty much stealing and would be dealt as such.


RE: Suggesting a rule for edits: - Cobalt Blue - 06-02-2009

we're the ones to remind the poster to provide a link to the original sheet, if he didnt. stating this as a rule provides a "legal" backup for this(just in case someone goes with that stupid "ill do when ill finish it" excuse)
