I'm glad you brought it up. Actually Tobias, you're incorrect. The renders people are using on here are made by individuals, yes, but they are owned by game companies. Those of you that use game renders argue that its ok to use them because the game companies dont mind the attention theyre getting. This piece was made by an individual and it is owned by that individual. Thats a completely different story. This person has the copyrights on the material in question so that this sort of thing doesn't happen. I made a thread about ripping when I first came here, asking what this board considers a rip. The response I was given was that game companies don't mind you using their renders (as long as its only for personal use, not for commercial use). I was also told that if someone uses work made by an individual, however, that is considered a rip. This is extremely clear that it was made by an individual with blatant and specific copyrights. That's the difference.
DAMN. Calm down people. ok i will say render artist. Hoon k. lol.

Saying "render by hoon" doesn't lift copyrights on it.

what you want me to take this whole thing down. what do i look like admin?
~Peace
You don't have to be an admin to take down a signature that you put up ;)
Jesus guys! I bet no one cares who uses the pics. Unless Hoon is some asshole, then I bet he wont care. Because THOUSANDS of people have used it. Gosh, just lay off that and give him comments on the rest of the sig
Its ugly logix, bad border (try 1px black) and coloring
EquaL, relax ;)
Just because you don't care doesn't mean that artists who work hard don't when their work is taken. Hoon sells his artwork so I wouldn't be surprised if he does mind people taking it. The number of people who have used it, whether its one or one thousand, doesn't justify this use of it. The point is, he sells his work and he has copyrights on it.
If this isn't a rip, then is there such a thing as a rip on these boards? From what I've seen, it doesn't seem like it. Even rips from depthcore don't mean anything. What is a "rip" here? I'm curious :)
copyrights? i wanna see the forms he got from the govt to be satisfied, cuz i think DA's whole copyright thing is bogus. how the hell do they copyright every work on the damn site when it takes weeks to get a copyright on one work. ive copyrighted a logo before with the govt, and that took forever, so im pretty skeptical taht DA's copyrights are even legit :\ id like to hear an explanation on it.
but anyway logix i think the sig is kinda sloppy and doesnt flow too well.. its decent for something made when ur bored i guess.. :D
