| alert- ebay member "orienblack" is selling thecoverproject covers for $15 a pop! |
| << < (4/20) > >> |
| MisterCreazil:
I think the problem they had was not that someone was using the cover they made but that someone was SELLING the cover they made when they intended the cover to be free to anyone who had the time to download it. |

I see your point, but still if you set something free over the net then don't be surpised or upset how it plays out. Thats just the nature of the net. Also this person could have just been charging for teh assembly of them or 15 for the case, I mean there no way to know for sure. This just has a number of auguments within it that you can not balance, and for people that created something to begin with that they didn't have permission to go playing with to then get upset when they see someone else using it, should be taken as a compliment to them instead of an insult. If one person is guilty in a situation like this then everyone is guilty, because it began with the people that created these things to begin who didn't have permission by the companys to use the names of the games or the art. As I said there is a doulbe standard being set here, and for people (including the admins) to start pointing fingers is crazy. People in glass houses shouldn't throw stones. From what i see the whole site is based on peaple making covers for games they don't have any permission or rights too(I'll stand corrected if someone posts their rights), and the site will even give you the tools you need to do it yourself with. By all means please explain this to me???? |

Simple really, used for free by fans vs making a profit off of someone else's work. If you really need this simple moral difference explained to you, like you aren't being purposely obtuse (and like we don't know who you are), then there's no hope and you might as well give up. BTW enjoy trying to hide your feedback & illicit profits you've made off of other people's works: http://www.goofbay.com/ebay_seller_history_tool.html?gsl_username=orienblack&gsl_days=30&gsl_include=sold&gsl_submit=&gsl_submit.x=25&gsl_submit.y=3 Must be nice making over $1,000 of profit in the last 30 days w/o doing anything of worth! |
