What happened to George_'s "16x16 Game Assets"?
Monday, January 23, 2017 - 09:30
A tileset called "16x16 Game Assets" by George_ was previously available here:
http://opengameart.org/content/16x16-game-assets
But that page now says "access denied". Does anyone know why it was removed? I have a saved copy of the files and I'd like to use them in a project, but if the page was taken down due to copyright/licensing problems, then I'll have to find something else.
There were no known licensing or copyright problems with that asset. It appears as if George_ himself requested the asset be removed. I attempted to contact George_ directly about this asset about 3 months ago, but have received no reply. Although the license is irrevokable, I can only assume it was taken down because the author doesn't want people to use the asset any longer... or at least he wishes to minimise its use.
