Interesting...
I didn't know you were invited to his house plus brought 5 people. I'll definitely ask Nathan about it. You and your 5 friends may discuss with me too.
Yeah Nathan seems much like "Idk" and "Idc" and I know his english isn't that good. I used to base with Silence for 4 months and I never heard talking him much. His english isnt that good. Which is why I decided to join the discussion and help to understand what is going on. I have an Italian colleague and he reminds me much of Nathan. ;)
Nathan told me he saw this hat in a movie once and wanted to make it.
Don't get me wrong guys. I can very much understand that you're upset!
But how can Nathan copy your hat when he never saw your sprite?
Either some SS member sent him and he copied or it is simply coincidence that he made it.
But I don't deny it they really look close.
I mean how can you "copy" so closely when you don't have the original file?
I ve seen Nathan's GFX at the time when I just was hired and now. He improved alot and I m proud of it. Hell ya - I wish I could improve like this too but I cant do much gfx lately.
Furthermore Nathan had 18 of his hats accepted onto Ol West for XMAS. With that great result he actually doesn't need to steal. He sounded like he didnt do it on purpose.
As I said what bothers me is that colors look close even though he doesn't have your file.
