Picture Credits and Extensions

[Bloodrun]

Members of YCM. Myself and the rest of the CC Section moderators, have decided to bring back the rule, where you must credit the artist of the pictures that you use for your cards.

 

Now this rule applies for the following Forums:

Realistic

Pop Culture

Any Other Cards

Contests <-- Upon Contest holders request

 

Now, for the first couple weeks, the moderators will be lenient when it comes to enforcing this rule, as we understand it will take sometime getting use to. I suggest you read the rules in either Forum, if you have any questions about them. You may also contact one of the moderators at any point in time.

 

Just a touch up on what crediting means. When we ask you to credit the artist, we mean that you must put the name of the artist somewhere in your thread or on your card. If you use a source other then DeviantArt, where there might not be a name of the artist, then simply provide the link to the picture within your thread.

 

This rule is to ensure that any other Forums (like DeviantArt) or any other sites, will be able to co-exist with the Yugioh Card Maker Forum.

 

Note: Disclaimers such as:

"I do not own the artwork I use. I simply use it to better enhance my cards." etc..

 

In signatures, and or threads. Will be ignored. They are not needed anymore, and will not suffice for the crediting rules.

 

 

ANY THREAD YOU SEE WITHOUT PROPER CREDIT, REPORT IT!

I tried as much as i could to enforce this during my CC period, it worked well, and it should now be better, too many members disregard such an important rule, and are ignorant as well as foolish

[God GAK]

I totally agree. Just, it is not liniant, it is lenient, lol

Oh no.. Google failed me =(

 

and, yes Dj, I know, I was there, and rather upset when the rule was abolished..

[Yankee]

Well, it's gonna take some getting used to by me, I never save the links to my pics. Thing is, everybody knows I get my pics from DA, everybody knows that I didn't make thepic unless I say so (I have made 1 pic so far, go me! lol).

 

But I'll be sure to follow this rule. Kind of dumb to think that the whole DA thing is over forever when we still continue to do what where doing before...

As I mentioned in the other thread, just make a note in a text document of links, that is what I do for mine. Also you forgot to mention about disclaimers Bloodrun, lol.

Sheesh, I'm forgetting alot, using my grown up texting is getting to be a distraction for me.. But i'll get right on that.

[God GAK]

in a pm i sent to blood, he told me that sig disclaimers aren't considered as official disclaimers.

[SushiTheLegend]

And that is true. ^^

[J-Max]

Indeed this is one of the goals I set if I ever became aCC Mod. Don't worry peeps I will be kind.

[Guest Tiger]

This seems like a good rule! :D

[Huntar!]

Ahh.. Rules being hopefully enforced as they should be.. Glad to see so.

Thank you. I hope things do smoothly.

[Phantom Roxas]

Good rule. Doesn't affect me though, since I don't go in CC much anyway.

Um what happens if, lets say I, start making my pokemon cards again.

 

I have no idea where I got 90% of my pics since I made some of the cards over a year ago and so I wouldn't be able to give credit, so wouldn't that would mean just by bumping the thread I'm breaking the rules?

 

So what would happen?

 

Also I personally think the rule is stupid, but as I think the old saying goes, I don't make the laws, I just follow them.

Old cards do not countt. New cards do.

This rule isn't stupid, apparently you don't remember the DA raids..

Ok thanks. So if I start making cards again, just link or say who made the art in any of the new cards?

 

Not really. I can under stand that if they don't want the image being used with out being asked and it is used, than I can see why they would be mad. Personally if I could do half of the things the people over at DA could do and some one used my arrt, I would most likely be honored that they liked my art so much that they used it, but this is just me.

 

Sorry if it seems I'm posting just to say the new rule is stupid, I can under stand why it is used, I just don't see a reason for people to get mad.

Um, right now, its just the name of the artist, but thats if its from DA, any other place requires a link, obviously.

 

and, no you have your opinion. This rule is just to protect YCM..

[Ultimate Ryan]

Blood, may I suggest adopting the new rule I created for Pop Culture to be used for Realistic? I think it may increase the overall quality of cards.

The 9999 card thing? I have, except I wont list it in the rules, Imma do a Dj on this one, and give them something to read the rules for.

[Saturn of Elemia]

So I have to provide links to the site or the images? Most of the pics I use come from Photobucket, which usually aren't made by the host...
