You're right. I had never read about Naga before you brought that up but Naga are not water creatures. They're snake-like things.
From Wikipedia
Naga is the Sanskrit and Pali word for a deity or class of entity or being, taking the form of a very great snake - specifically the king cobra, found in Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism. A female naga is a nagi or nagini.
Indeed you did! Sorry I missed it. I've looked at your stuff before too, I used your bush in my plant repack. Goes to show there's a lot of stuff on this site that goes undiscovered until people start talking about it.
Trying to make use of all the individual files proved to me more of a challenge than I thought. I finally gave up and packed them all into a tileset. Maybe this can help someone else wanting to use all these tiles. Don't give me any credit because I didn't do anything except pack them all together into one file.
You have made so much incredible music available here on OGA. I don't know if anyone has said it enough yet but you're awesome. This is amazing just like the rest of your work. Thank you.
Seeing art that wasn't restricted by NC, ND, and wasn't commercially licensed is what kept me here. GPL has it's quirks, so does CC but they serve a reasonable purpose.
As far as determining derivatives of something licensed as CC-BY-SA 3.0, would it be reasonable to talk to the person who made the original work and ask for their blessing? I've done that with success several times without problem. If you're giving away art most artists will be flattered that you want to use their stuff and won't be hard to work with.
If you license something a certain way and you state a modification you wish to make to that license I don't see how you can go wrong. If you license something CC-BY-SA 3.0 and explicitly state in the description or attribution instructions you don't require the whole project to be under the same license then that's enough for any normal person to understand you've waived that stipulation of the license.
My experience as a software developer is mostly with MIT and GPL licensed goods. When I started dealing with CC it didn't make a lot of sense. After reading through the simple descriptions it's not hard to understand the intended meaning. If someone really has a problem with how you've licensed a free asset they'll probably just ask you. I've never heard of someone getting sued over something given away under a CC or GPL license.
If you're worried about mixing commerically licensed content with CC-BY-SA or GPL licensed goods just talk to the author. 99.9% of the time they will tell you in writing that it's okay to use their stuff for whatever you're doing as long as you give them credit.
Good suggestions. Animated snakes have already been done to some extent. In the base assents there is a snake moving animation in 4 directions. I suppose expanding it to include attacking, biting, and other movements might be appropriate: Base LPC Assets
The only snail I've seen on OGA is this one (not in LPC style, not sure how useful a snail would be to be honest):Snail
The naga Redshrike did looks pretty awesome. It could be made LPC and animated with some success but not sure how usefu or usable it would be. Not exactly a common encounter outside of sea or water environments: 3 RPG enemy remixes
By dragon or lizard I meant exactly what it sounds like. Redshrike already made one animated dragon and it's pretty big but thought I'd include it just in case anyone had an idea.
Flying creatures would be great, I get images in my head of wyverns from Dragon Warrior I and harpies from many different places.
Golems that Redshrike made previously are just bad ass and deserve to be mentioned and considered for animation.

Pretty interesting to read about that.

Just in case Mumu's image gets dumped like I've seen happen to a few other people's images embeded, I've uploaded it as part of this comment

Needs more cowbell?

@makrohn
By orc or goblin I meant something like these: 10 Basic RPG enemies: the goblin supplement
By skeleton type things I meant something like these: Fossil (Undead) RPG Enemy Sprites
By dragon or lizard I meant exactly what it sounds like. Redshrike already made one animated dragon and it's pretty big but thought I'd include it just in case anyone had an idea.

If anyone else wants to make a modified version I uploaded the PSD file Redshrike gave me. Feel free to remix to your heart's content :)
