Sites distributing skins without permission and with no author note
Sunday, August 3, 2003 by Alexandrie | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk
Here some french site that distribute lots of skins without permission, have a look and contact them if it is a problem for you. We will contact them for our skins that they are distributing, but I saw there was more than our skins out there.

so If the French are trying to achieve some type of purity why would they use a term coined in Canada, strange, very strange indeed.

This is a peculiar comment because on one hand you use a title of respect and admiration, i.e. Mr. Then you accuse me of being on drugs. I really don’t know how to respond to your dichotomous riddle.

between, I am from Quebec Canada and french Canadian, so it's not a war againts Montreal hehehe!
I do not want a big fight debate here, I just wanted to let other skinners know they might have their skins on other website and if they did not wanted them there, they could contact them. We didn't tried to contact them yet and we don't know these websites, but we will contact them shortly.

I got in touch with the owner of the last site (as it was the only one which I found any of my skins on I think)
Seems like maybe he just didn't know 'the rules'
His reply is here:
Hello,
I am sorry to have posted your skins without your authorization, my site is right my hobby and I am not remunerated (I pay just my field). I 'd like to continue to post your skins on my site, can I have your authorization??? Are you agree to do be partner with me and ???
I hope you will understand. Thank you in advance

Renault
this company did a huge ad campaign in the US to get people to pronounce their name correctly... it's Rey-no not re-nault... so we all started speaking french for them to pronounce their name correctly and what's the first car they release after this campaign??? the FUEGO Spanish... I felt betrayed... so I started calling it a RE nault again
