I have a quick question I wanted to throw out to you all. If you find Images on another skin that you think you can incorporate into your skin can you ( Use) these Images. i.e Main title and Medium Title Back Ground Images? Now knowing that if you use these images you are in part using part of the creator's skin into yours. I have given credit to the creator of the image through a post and I plan to host all the images myself. Here is my problem. I have found a certain Image I really think fits the board. I want to use it. Note these Images are minor really with no distinguishing features on it, basic. none of my skin code is the same as the (Skin these images are coming from) Can I use them without Copy right issues or the creator getting mad? I have contacted the creator but no response. |

Generally no. If you contact the creator and they agree then it's fine but using other peoples images is frowned upon. Just make an inspired version of the image yourself. |

Thats what I have been attempting to do. Is it still wrong to edit the original image into something else? |

Again check with the creator first. Most people I'm fairly sure won't want you to around here, it's considered ripping so be careful, you may be reported to Zathyus Networks. Tread carefully. It is safer to either find someone to make you something from scratch or do it yourself.

No problems. Better to be sure than not.
