I'm a fan of your work, it's great, but I would agree with medicinestorm, it looks a little over kill, maybe just pick the best ones or shortening the feed perhaps, that's only an opinion of mine, it's amazing that your work has featured in so many projects and it's such a credit to you as a creator, and you should be able to show them all, maybe OGA can add an extra tab on the authors profile page? Or allow us to show our work down the side under the medals perhaps.
@kagerato no worries matey, I read it first thing this morning and i was surprised by the reaction, my intentions was to try and be helpful, and not really to lecture anyone, and I can see you are very passionate about these matters, so again I apologise if I struck a nerve, and sorry if it came across as lecturing.
what I was really trying to say was to any newbie developers thinking of creating a game that is someone's IP is to do so with caution, as there maybe some consequences down the line, maybe not now, but maybe later.(laws and legal system could change at anytime)
think when I wrote it I was going through the motions of my experiance, and it was quite scary so maybe that's why it may of came across the way it did.
We are all going to have an opinion on this as we may have experienced something or been advised otherwise whether it good or bad, and I think Mold is quite right, "no one here is right or wrong." .
Wow, there was no need to be so shitty about it,I only put that on here to share what I thought might help, clearly it doesn't, and maybe your right more about these issues than me, certainly sounds like it from what I've read. I apologise if anyone has read this and I have somewhat discouraged them. Il keep my opinions to myself in future. perhaps delete the thread.
I think if you download something here under a particular license then you have to agree to that license, if the file has a different license elsewhere then it is usually picked up and removed for licensing issues, however the odd one may slip the net. As long as you can prove the file you use is accompanied by the license and you adhere to the license you haven't done anything wrong really, however the author of the file, or user that submitted the file in the first place may have committed an licensing offence, so it should be taken up with them for legalities.
Example: if you have 2 of the same artwork, one is public domain and one is protected.
you download the public domain and use, that's fine, hey it's public domain right?, but someone has recognised that it's there work and is protected, so they jump up and down on you, you say hey but I got this here with this license, they say ok, we must investigate this, so you have to take down you project whilst we find out who uploaded the original artwork. Then they should be liable really I think, so you have to find something else to use, complete bummer. Not sure what happens though if the uploader Cannot be found, long as you can prove the license you got with the file.
thats my understanding anyway, anyone feel free to correct my opinion.:)
I use gamemaker, and do my own art, and I'm amateur in both,and boomshaka is quite right, it's not an easy feat to try and do both, split your time, as both can take a lot of it, I do a lot of reading of tutorials in the evening, and practice in the day when I have the time, you will not be perfect at either, it will take years. I've been using gamemaker for 4 years now and I still haven't released anything. Be happy with what you have done, it's very much a progression, use your artwork that you create as placeholders to begin with and then you can smarten them up later.:)
Click on your profile, then check your downloads tab, it will be in there if you have downloaded it.
