*Sighs* unfortunately no, the decisions been made and it is too late to back out now... I have my work posted at Deviant Art, all of it and then some, LoL.. Also I am a member of Skinnalicious, Skin Your Screen and I may join one other site, if they'll have me..but as far as WC..im done. It isnt the only circus in town, and it's time to move on.
Too bad, there are still alot of people here that I admire, but then, many of them also belong to other sites as well so I will run into them...
For those of you that think all I was after is my "15 minutes of fame" allow me to assure you I really tried to avoid the embarrassment of that 15 minutes..but im only human, with slight anger managment issues.."I can only take so much and then I cant take no more"..LoL
At anyrate people, I'll be around the net somwhere..LoL
Take care,
Z.

It's never too late, Bob. Even deleted works can be salvaged/restored within a reasonable time [though not always the case]...

| Regarding the Prince of Persia bootskins uploaded at the same time by the same person, from the Ubisoft website: |
The problem arises here that the uploader might not have sourced the image/s directly from the Ubisoft Website ...but may have found them elsewhere, devoid of usage restriction/s....thus making the uploader believe he was 'in the right' in using/uploading them.
Perhaps...
Any and ALL Boots or Logons should be automatically refused [moderated] if they do not have links to their source.
It seems obvious that some people cannot be relied-upon to confirm DEFINITIVE consent.
This matter needs discussion between Admins/moderators to determine formal policy.
Either way it will be difficult to adopt for existing uploads retrospectively....

Hey Jafo; would that mean have to upload apop, terragen, bryce and PSP X files to photobucket to link for source

Oh, and it does say there that even if Ubisoft permits it to be used on other sites, it will still be for personal use only.

No, smartypants...
The 'issue' is with wallpaper sources in particular. Hopefully 'ripped' buttons, etc can be caught by the community...[fortunately Boots don't even have them to worry about].
If the wall image is your own personal work all you'd need to do would be to say so....but if it was being 'borrowed' from someone/where else then link and/or permission.txt to verify consent to use.
Rather than 'assuming consent' we 'assume prohibition' until evidence to the contrary.
In other words...we classify every submitted logon or boot as unacceptable and moderate it UNLESS it has links/permissions/proof of ownership.
Means the moderators shoot first and ask questions later....

Perhaps a case of selective inerpretation to meet ones agenda??
The world will never know....
I suppose it isnt the Stock Exchange that has material meant to be used in projects so that makes the licences agreement less important...
