Title: Image use policy?
Post by: rojo on March 21, 2018, 08:43:28 AM
Hi, guys.  I apologize if this has been answered somewhere, but I've been having some difficulty finding information about the site's image use policy.  I'd like to use a cover image in a YouTube video (monetized) since I don't own my own copy of the game, but I'd like to make sure I have permission to do so first.  Is there a page or post somewhere that has this info?  Thanks!

Our images are used for YouTube all the time. We don't have a policy in regards to that. Our users take issue when people sell TCP work on eBay.

It will probably be at least a couple weeks before the video goes live (I'm still tweaking some things and finalizing script / scenes), but it will go up on http://www.youtube.com/rojovision when it's ready.  It'll briefly introduce a game for a let's play style series, and it'll be the first video of this type I'll have made so I'm not sure how it will turn out.  Should be at least decent / interesting I hope.

Well it was just a hair more than a "couple weeks," but the video I was creating is live.  I got distracted by other games so this ended up on the back burner.  It's just a short video introducing a playthrough I'm doing for Shadowrun SNES.  Unfortunately I only have a loose cart, so I used some covers from this game and others to give people a visual of what I'm talking about.

You can watch at the link below if you're interested.
