On one thread somewhere it mentions that all resources need credit and that all art taken from DA or other art galleries need written permission.
But all new layouts being accepted aren't even listing where they get their resources from which clearly violates the terms of use for pretty much everything.  I mean 99.9 percent of resource creators demand credit for their work (many layout submitters here demand credit as well)and yet many people here submitting their layouts aren't even posting any sort of credit for any thing they take. Whatever happened to that whole idea of it being a requirement that submitters post credit even if its from google/photobucket < which aren't very reliable sources Photobucket is the biggest source for theft. and people who take from google are blind to the huge window that clearly shows what site it came from. Its just not fair to the people making all these brushes and textures and getting no recognition.  [edit] its not very hard to keep track either... heres a tutorial on how to remember where you go your resources from http://silentatmosphere.com/tutorials/advice/managing.php |

It would be nice if they listed their resources, but a lot of times that doesn't happen. Or they forget when they got an image that they have on their computer. I don't accept layouts that use images from DA, because they are copywritten. I have come across a lot of brushes that are from DA and the user has given credit. The funny thing is, is that the person who makes the layout demands credit, but they don't credit anyone else for where they got the stuff from.

Just thought I'd say. It's hard to find people who are using your stuff without crediting, because there's nothing linking back to you. Plus, I've come to find that most people don't really care about Xanga and Myspace layouts with un-credited resources; it's the well-known sites that get lots of visitors and "OMG YOUR LAYOUTZ ARE SO AWESOME!!!" kind of comments that receive the most scrutiny in regards to credits. Sorry if I'm not making sense; I'm kinda in a hurry XD |
