[align=center]People have complained about use of their images before and most likely will in the future. If this should not be enforced, lock this thread immeadiatly instead of having a big debate with spam on top. I think that you must have permission for card images, why not for image-manipulation purposes, such as renders,signatures, and banners. Why? You might ask. Well, because another forum has had this problem and has been resolved by strict enforcement. Indeed, they made these images, but why not but to credit them? At least post a link to it. Somethings need to been enforced and this would qualify. Without these images, signatures could not be created, renders could not exist without these to render, and for your RPGs, your character art would not exist.(not including tektek.org which is totally generated.)So, please give credit.

Permission has already discussed in the staff section. The DA ruling should apply to all images from every source.

It's a Shame it had to happen but we must respect the Wishes of the Artists. However I do have an Alternative for Pics and have opened a Topic Regarding it in the Staff Forum.

You do no that Stocks are to be used in any way except when making profit then you have to have permission from the artist. Renders are taken from screenshots and stuff and companies who made the characters and stuff don't care. As for C4D's they're open for use so I don't believe permission is needed. Brush's are the same as C4D's, open for use unless the artists has some conditions.

 

Permission in all cases isn't needed or required unless mentioned but it's always appreciated whether to the renderer or the person who made the C4D's or stock. Some stocks are not free but if you use them by mistake and then apologize and remove it and stuff then it's no big deal.
