Kursed, I just noticed the banner you're using for your forum...

http://i.imgur.com/Ft7hE.png

It happens to contain a certain drawing of Fox and Krystal made by a friend of mine. And I do for a fact know you neither have his permission to use it, or even asked for it in the first place. I'd like an explanation.

Out of curiosity, since the artist has drawn something that's based on Nintendo's work does he really need to demand that people have his permission to use it? I mean it is common curtsy, but it seems just a tad fresh to act like actual property has been stolen.

I belive that the artists right to not have his work copied, edited or used without permission is by far more important than Nintendo's copyrights. The later being a line we allready crossed with this site.

........That sounds like a bit of a double negative, if not slightly hypocritical. It's one thing to be that way about your own original work, but it's really low to be that way about fanart and fanfiction since you're really ripping off someone's original idea anyway. The only difference is, you know Nintendo and said other companies won't get involved for such trivial things. But you know you're doing the same thing.

Believe me, that's how things works among artists. If the artwork in question is original or fanart makes no real difference. Nick something an artist have worked hard and long on, and you'll be crucified as an art-thief. That's how most internet art communities work, and especially on DA where the original artist was posting it on.

Asper does have a point, I would rather be respectful of the artist, and Asper, and follow his wishes. I will work on getting proper permission, and will not use further art from the artist until getting such.

Nintendo owns the intellectual property (ie the characters), but artists own the creative property (ie the art itself). At least I think that's how these things work. Either way, Asper asked nicely so it's proper to oblige.

Nope. No Mature boards or anything like, if that's what you're asking.

The "worst" we have is an opinion board, and even then nothing flares up.

Oh, and OWA, we only held two contests for the banner and Evilwaffles won once, and McCloud won once :P

Just an update.

SFG now has its own parent website: www.starfoxgalaxies.com

Right now it's small and empty, but with time, we'll flesh it out and get it up and running. I suggest you checking it out if you have the time.

Special thanks to our friend, FoxMcCloud, who's doing all the dirty work on getting the thing looking pretty :P I just handle the forums itself.

Why the deuce does a roleplaying forum need a parent site like that?

A little excessive there, don'tyathink?

Because we're not JUST a roleplaying site. We've grown larger and are starting to branch out a bit. If you don't like it, then don't visit it.
