Graal and Graphics Theft, share your opinions - 10

I'm sensing some personal tension in the thread. Ivy is a highly remarkable artist in the community.

I think saying that the average person improves Ivy's art by editing it is pretty ridiculous. But like Colin said, from an artist's POV her art isn't really worth stealing. That's not to discredit Ivy's work either, but if someone who had any pixel art talent needed a head for Graal, they'd be better off making their own then stealing Ivy's.

I don't frequent any art threads anymore but last I saw most of her heads are recolors/edits of her past works.

I flipped to a random page and found this on Ivy's thread, http://www.graalians.com/forums/show...=21802&page=59

So for the record, her work evidently is worth taking

Why is this thread directed toward Ivy in particular now

Only staff can get heads removed. That's only, so that people won't mistake others for a staff member.

If you aren't staff, then tough noodles.

I used to have my heads and bodies imgur albums open to the public so people could take my stuff and edit it if they want. Did that for a little while until people kept messaging me that someone was impersonating me and scamming people...so now I only have my bodies open :/ only takes person to ruin it for everyone else lol

But yeah most staff only take their own heads away because they don't want people impersonating them since that could be extremely problematic.

None of the graphics posted on that page are even pixel art; so its even less relevant then whatever we are discussing now.

All staff should be stuck with the default player look.

I don't know if it's an personal issue, but it doesn't deserve it's own thread so:
e o, apparently Nep likes to brag about being a better artist and being a thief who claims he did gfx that he didn't do.

Sora didn't know, I just told him to refund it as soon as possible, and I assume it's that Nep of our forums because I don't know anyone else.

the head

"There's like 7 guys here on Balamb that I think are trying to impersonate you and all the other staff members"

-probably everyone

That would be hilarious-

All of a sudden, the now dystopian Graalian world turned to disarray... roles switched, and chaos reigned. Noobs became adiams, and adiams became noobs, and from there forth nothing was ever the same...

Pretty much the next page and a half is about stolen graphics

the head

Okay I'm not necessarily sure I know what is going on anymore; is Sora an actual artist that stole your head?

Just change the default player look to a random staff member's customs. Problem solved.

Because ivy made some more personal level threads. This was meant to be a general thread. Not just about ivy.

....
Wasnt expecting 10 pages of replies.
Lmao

And so could impersonating players.
It could lead to actual copyrighted gfx(primairly hats) that are not graals property being submitted with people under the impression that they are dealing with the actual creator.

Obviously player impersonation isnt as easy to manage and I think when it comes to 1k hats and what-not the staff do a really good job of making sure everythings by the books.

You are a failed twitch troll.
#1 who tf uses twitch emotes outside of twitch related stuff?
#2 this isn't 4chan there is no green text after ">"

Please don't ruin this with childish behaviour.

Back on topic,

They even do gani competitions too!

Why am I just now seeing this?
Thanks for the laugh, pal.

If you don't want people to use your graphics on Graal, don't upload them.
