Forum:Regarding Sprite Comics

A few rules regarding sprite comics (this may also apply to images in general):


 * The sprite comics should not violate the image name policy or the art policy (You can read in Sonic News Network:Policy
 * Do not use or edit any fan-made sprites (made by somebody else) without permission.
 * If permission is confirmed, you may credit the owner.
 * Failure to follow the rules will result in the deletion of the sprites and comics in which the sprites were used.
 * Crediting

First, it is pointless to use the sprite and credit it without the owner even allowing them to use it under any circumstances.

Second, most users write a long list of names under a section on their user-page which is meant to give credit to the owners of the sprite they use. Sure, they have credited but it's hardly any specific.
 * I'd like to ask why the names credited are even written on the userpage? Let's say someone uses a fan-made Espio sprite in a comic, instead of having to go to the userpage to assume they credit the owner why not write "Espio sprite belongs to ___" on the description of the comic/blog page? (As in, right below the comic)

Here's another example:

Not this:
 * Person A
 * Person B
 * Person C

But this
 * Espio sprite belongs to person A
 * Mighty sprite belongs to person B
 * Marine sprite belong to person C

While, it is okay to write the credits on the userpage, I think it would be much better if one just credits specifically right under the sprite comic.

That's all. You may express your opinion or ask any question.--SlugDrones • (Contact) 04:17, March 21, 2013 (UTC)
