The difference of MADE, RIPPED and COMBINED

[luckygerbils]

Oh, and Luckygerbils?
What would you do if someone else claimed your things to be their own, hmmm? Would it make you angry? I'd imagine it would.

I would like them to credit me for my work, but overall I would be rather happy that people actually liked my resource that much.  It's the fact that I know I made that resource and that someone else found it and liked it that is enjoyable to me.  

And I can't say I've looked through all the resources here lately, but most of the time the people who post non-original/other-people's resources either say that they found that resource, or they don't say anything at all about the author/artist.  I've rarely seen people who blatently claim they've made the non-original resources they've posted.

sry if I don't credit people in anything,
but i got soooo much from this site, i cant even remember a few of the original authors...

I'm new here and I do believe I also typed that I made 'em S.O.R sprites.Wait........ I actually just said to give credit for my works. I did this just in case if anybody might want to post it on their own web site. But yes, I did just edit them so I'm very sorry if i offended or just pissed off anybody.

I find it really funny that people who rip sprites off of games that no one cares about(<1990) then post it as their own and get very protective of their "creations" demanding to be credited. Some of their sprites are of games so old I wonder if someone will ever use them for a game, and at that point you could just rip them off yourself from the freeware rom.
What's the take on giving credits and rips? Some worked hard to find good sprites for us to use, others only seem to do it to waste bandwidth.

well take me for instance i dont really care if i get credit. why? well there once was a time (not to long ago actually) that i didnt know about charas that i used to spend all day on google>images searching for a nice little resource BUT NO!!! "give me credit, give me credit, credit! CREDIT!! CRRREDDIITTT!!!, and that used to get me super pissed of so thats why.

[vultman]

i get where alsokay is comming from.  itcan be a pain crediting every resouce you use.  i dont care for credit that much, as long as you dont say, "I made this" im cool.

i dont care much about my resorces. if  wanted the credit so much id keep it formy self.

[Loudez]

if someone took credit for what i had done, i would hunt them down! (it would probably never happen as i haven't made anything yet) as long as they say they didn't do it, then that's fine with me.

[maxine]

actually i dont either care for credits. Its nice if someone credit you but its not needed for me... And please no gun smileys. isn´t there a way too remove them?

i love my bf and he loves me even ask him! and i shave my legs and i am male.  >:

Yeah Go away! lol! noob!

Anyways I only give credit to resourses that are original; midis (drenrin2120 and coaster crazy) and Facesets (can't name anyone), and if they are worth crediting. Since I would give credit to people with good stuff I would expect the same for mine. The golden rule plays a huge part here.

I as many other sprite creators rip sprites and throuw them together with offline/online generators. Most of the time when I dont give credits its because Ive pulled from so many generators to make a single sprite set that i forgot. Currently I use charas.EX for rm2k(3) sprites and a custom generator i found and edited for XP sprites. I understand why you would be mad at someone b/c they are lazy and dont take the time then claim it as there own. Me I try to give credit to the resources/programs and other materials i use also i try to give credit to people if they helped me. If i forget who/where i got the sprites/materials used to make/put together a sheet I allow evey one to know i wasnt the only creator and that i used other reasources. Also sometimes (I dont mean to) I forget to credit people and resources b/c I often multi task and just dont pay it any attention. Being as Im new here I havent really done any of this yet and Im trying my best to stop doing it period.

Anyway thanks for your time and I agree it sometimes agrivates me aswell.

I hope this doesn't count as a kick. (Is a kick the same thing as a necro-post? Anyway, what's wrong with posting a week and a half later?)

Either way, you can't start any website that generates game design graphics and the like for you without knowing that 99% of people will not acknowledge your website.
