liquival Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 The link to his page is here: http://armstrongstewart.deviantart.com/He ripped multiple sets of icons:http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/49478659/http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/49475034/http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/49474412/ Link to comment
Conner Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 It looks like he converted them to 'real' icons, but I don't think that's a good thing either.Maybe he's just ignorant of what he's doing, and the policies he is breaking. Link to comment
liquival Posted February 24, 2007 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 well, just converting to windows format without permission is still ripping deviantart does have rules, even if the faq is a bit hard to find : / Link to comment
lostspyder Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 http://www.deviantart.com/deviation/49475034/If your worried about it, why don't you email the original authors and let the decide if it makes them angry. Theres no reason why you should run around policing everyone elses IP. Link to comment
gnomexp Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 True.... he doesn't claim credit and also leaves the original preview image, including the original URL (at least on the first one). We do stuff like this all the time here.The other one was a blatant rip. This is just a port without permission. Link to comment
ZeroC00l Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 The first link i can see there's an Original Author has left some comment to it, you should listen to this If your worried about it, why don't you email the original authors and let the decide if it makes them angry. Theres no reason why you should run around policing everyone elses IP instead of keep open up Rippers theard, who cares let the original Author deals with it...he probably does not see the consequences of it.

lostspyder Posted February 24, 2007 Report Share Posted February 24, 2007 The one (the VLC icon) where the original author is complaining that its a rip is released under creative commons "Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 2.5 Spain" The only thing this 'ripper' didn't do was attribute the original author by his name but rather by his webpage. Since the original author didn't specify how the icons should have his attribution with them, then I would say he hasn't even done anything wrong.I dont know about the rest, but the VLC icons were used properly under their license. If the author is mad that he put the wrong license on them, thats his fault. Link to comment
armstrongstewart Posted March 11, 2007 Report Share Posted March 11, 2007 Jajajaja i just have one thing to say: Liquival is an envious i don`s say i did the icons and like said lostpyder my error was don`t give the attributes.
