Etarnalazure Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 Hello everyone, i cannot say i'm new to the forum but i can say that i'm newly registered!I got a small question for the lot of you. After seen some of the amazing artwork on here i decided to download it and use it in a game i am currently working on.The game is going to be used for an exam me and my group have in a few weeks, so it will not be publicly available, though it will not be sold i feel i will have to ask either way.Is it okay to use the resources on this site for our game? None of us are even close to artists, we are all old website/program developers who program in vb.net, c#, java, php and so on, so we are severely lacking the powers to create anything good looking for our game.If it is not okay we will of cause go back to using stick-men and green dots as our graphics.~Etarnalazure out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sickey Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 I believe most graphics here are RMVX graphics etc, which I guess are free to use.Try google for sprites etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etarnalazure Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 I have tried to Google for it, but almost all of the sprites out there are either rip offs of stuff like mega man or single sprites instead of sprite-sheets ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myron Posted December 8, 2011 Share Posted December 8, 2011 Depends where you get the artwork from. If you steal artwork from people that didn't post the artwork in the Resources board/Request Resources, you need to get their permission. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etarnalazure Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 I've only taken artwork from posts in Resources. Though i suppose that as a thanks i could put my abilities as a programmer out there if someone needs help.That way i don't feel like i'm just taking.

Etarnalazure Posted December 8, 2011 Author Share Posted December 8, 2011 Still, its rather uncommon finding a gem of a site like this. Its rather hard finding proper graphics for games. And then when you come past something like this, you gotta do what you can to keep it afloat so that i may spread and continue to support indie developers like us.

Robin usually tells off those folk. You're in good spirit starting off with the philosophy you currently have./support Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Etarnalazure Posted December 9, 2011 Author Share Posted December 9, 2011 Honestly, you learn a lot when you are in it you self. Before i became a website programmer i thought making an site was easy and everyone could do it (Well they can with stuff like WordPress but its no where near the quality of a homemade one).Was the same deal with when i started programming games. I thought it was easy.You gain a certain appreciation.And that's why i think its better telling people WHY they made a mistake when they take other peoples work for granted, instead of just saying "You suck leave!".I've seen similar posts from some of the people on here, a person made some fairly bland pixel art and people started flaming him for it instead of helping that person along with what his mistakes where.But all in all i like the overall mood of this forum. A rather fine collection of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
