COPYRIGHT GRAPHICS

Blessed
This post was updated on .
Hi,
I will address this nicely, but I would have like to be asked if you could use my monsters in your game.
I spent hours drawing them over the years and all of a sudden I get a email with a screenie of my Plantz monster and was told you are also using my genie monster as well?
What else of mine are you using without asking?
Lets see I would say you downloaded my early server, and ripped of all the graphics.
I just logged on and seen the Alice cards, let me guess you have a flying half skeleton with big red bat wings and a sword, how about a yeti or abominable snowman, maybe even the 40 thieves on a horses. Just to name a few!
Did you steal the lamp that goes with that quest too?

If you don't believe these are mine. I have all PSD work files with them DATED!!!!!
I am a digital artist and this would not be the first time I have taken someone to court for using my stuff without a written consent from me!!!! This are burnt up on DVDS with the Date archived into them. Believe me they stand up in a court perfectly.
I don't even need to be their.

If you wish to do a small check with your local copyright(c) company you will find the penalty is around $250,000.00 for using copyright art.

If you still wish to use these NPC's and Monsters please contact me @
darkpixies@msn.com.
In future please ask!!!! I don't mind you using them. but I get sick of people bastardising my pics and calling them theirs and I get nothing for my efforts.

Please have this issue attended to at once.

(I'd like to preface this by reiterating that this person is not Darkpixie the player.)

Hello. I am the head pixel artist for Bones Underground. I was unaware of any inappropriate usage of artwork by our game. I would be happy to discuss this matter with you, but I would like to say that some of those monsters were made very clearly by different artists with wildly different artistic styles. I am also mildly suspicious that you would ever have pixel art in the form of a .PSD file, as photoshop is generally poor for pixel art and I don't know of people using it. (Most of the monsters you described were hand pixeled.)
(Whether that is an instance of naming coincidence remains to be seen. If you're throwing out false claims for the hell of it, as has previously occurred, I will be very put off by the waste of my time.)

Anyway, I naturally take all claims of art misuse very seriously, and I will work with you to resolve the problems if they are legitimate.
Go ahead and send me an email at Cirrasbu@hotmail.com and we will go from there.
The cake is a lie.

Genie, Hell Raisers (half skeletons w/ wings and swords) and Horsemen were pixelled by a guy named 'Evil' and gave these pixels to the owner of the server SOB, who in turn gave them to the owner of OA, who again, gave them to Bone, the owner of BU. That pretty much makes BU the rightful owners of these pixels. As for the other NPCs that you've mentioned, I don't know about.

You can't bring them to court over this matter.
I'm only here for the food.
