I'm not sure I read this right.

I always read that line to mean that if an author wanted their own works removed, the site would honor that request.

Are you saying that if an author requested a work be removed, you would also /automatically/ remove any derivative works?

Or would you only do that if an author specifically requests derivatives be removed?

What if an author requested a specific derivative be removed but wanted their own original work to remain on the site?

Despite lukasz1985's ridiculous overreaction, there is valid question raised here.  Is it fair to give original author's a 'veto' over derivative works?  Afterall, part of the point of these licenses is to protect users of a work as well as authors.  If someone takes a work and puts a lot of time and effort creating a derivative work, and makes a solid, good faith effort to abide by the terms of the license, is it fair for their work to be disregarded if the original work's author decides he/she doesn't want their work on OGA anymore?

These questsions asked, I totally agree this is a really rare corner case because it pretty much never happens, even the case Clint sites was actually OGA mods going out of their way to contact an orginal artist and offer to remove the offending works rather than the author themselves requesting it.  In that way, I think it's more than appropriate for site mods to handle these kinds of requests on a case by case basis.

Looking at the spritesheet, the sprites themselves are all contiguous (no gaps within a single sprite).

Given this, it shouldn't be too hard to write a little code to find the sprites on the page and either re-space them on a single sheet, or save them out as individual frames.

General idea would be scan looking for where non-transparent pixels start and stop.  The stuff in between is your sprites.

@Boom Shaka:  Just wanted to say kudos to you for having such a good attitude about things! :)

Well, I just recieved a deluge of dated emails from OGA so maybe somebody was doing some fixing?  or at least found a way to clear the queue?

@Varkalandar:  Could it just be a temporal thing?  I have noticed that 'save' can take some time, even with posts.  And it'll even time out on rare occsasions.  Never quite sure if it's my internet connection flaking out or the OGA server taking a pass.

@xhunterko:

Know I'm a bit late here, but I have been working on a re-write of the site guidelines and FAQ starting with the license section. 

http://opengameart.org/forumtopic/site-faqsubmission-guidelines-updatesc...

It's kind a long thread at this point, but if you scroll all the way to the bottom you'll find my effort at clarifying the GPL section of the FAQ, be great to have your feedback on it.  The conclusion is pretty much on point with what clint and redshrike had to say, but I'd be curious to know if the text would have helped claridy things for you earlier?

While I agree there's something to be said for taking your time and browsing the site, at the same time, I don't think it's a stretch to say that an archive needs a functional search tool to be truly useful.

Any word on getting this fixed?   I just don't want to see it go months like it did last time :)

I didn't check the dates, but I half way wonder if the indexing process isn't actively running, and so what we have is just indexes up to the last time bart pressed the emergency 'rebuild search indexes' button.

Way to check would be to compare date on the forum post where he announced he'd done that w/ the cut off for searches.
