What about those Ultimate Mod images?

How many recolored stock images do we want in the image mod? I have several nice recolored solar panels. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Official Image Collection
 

Do you have a link to the files?

I am curious as to what alternate colors actually look good on a solar panel http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon7.gif

I included the UM readme and credits file in the UM folder... not sure if you need that or not. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon12.gif

Re: Official Image Collection
 

I would like to point out that when Hadrian left for...umm...disneyland, or wherever, that he left me the rights to use his images in my mod. Now unless you have some arrangement with him as well, that I am unaware of, I can be pretty sure he wouldent want his images going public domain, otherwise, he would have said so. or something. I mean he granted me the rights, and me alone. ^__^ So, sorry, no UM images in the Image Mod.

Re: Official Image Collection
 

Those images are public domain Kodos. They became public domain when they were posted on the internet. Additionally, where does this sudden right you have over Hadrian's "property" have come from? He never said any such thing.

Re: Official Image Collection
 

Fyron. Its not a "sudden right" but one I have had the distinction of owning since...ummm...when Hadrian left for wherever. It was his parting gift to me. If for whatever reason, my word is not good enough, I can get both Dave and Fang Tsu, to come here and personally back my claim

Re: Official Image Collection
 

Their word is not worth much... where did Hadrian allegedly say this?

And even if true, it still does not matter, because those images (as well as the Versions of the mod posted to the internet) are in the public domain already, available for use freely.

Re: Official Image Collection
 

Regarding adding any images from Hadrian's "Ultimate Mod" to the Official Image Collection.

Hadrian has contacted us (Shrapnel Moderators) and specifically requested the images NOT be included. This is consistant with his past behavior as he has always made it a policy to raise an objection any time his work is posted anywhere without his permission.

I feel this request should be honored, whether or not we personally agree with it. I have neither the ability or the inclination to police the entire internet and make sure that Hadrians work is not posted anywhere without his permission, that's up to him to do. But I think you should request his wishes and not put them in the image pack.

I would also request that we refrain from cluttering up this forum with further discussion on the issue. If anyone has any questions about it, feel free to contact me directly.

Thanks Geo.
Its nice to have the issue settled, buried and zombie-proofed.

PS:
I don't recall getting a message directly from him... perhaps it was before I became a moderator?

Yeah! Those are better ideas than the twin-engine thing.

Re: Official Image Collection
 

I agree with Geo's comments. I can add no more and could not say it any better so I will just repeat it.
