i am beginning to think gamesas doesn't intend to use anyone's art.

When have they ever stated they were going to use fan art?

why is the concept art forum open? why can we start topics? they want more than our opinion. i coyrighted a few of my pieces for them. but never got a peep if they used them in anyway.

this can not deny or confirm policy reminds me of somethign.

My understanding is that the Concept Art forum was opened for official concept art and discussion with the artists (Serg, Jeff C, etc), fan art was started by users.

Most developers won't use community art out of the blue like that, too many legal issues.

odd they never commented on my art. i even asked for pointers, and no response. we wil lhave to wait and see. maybe they will use just 1 of them.

Propser, Ianol, but

They can not legally comment on your unsoliciated art. It is most likely not only a company policy but strongly advised that they don't.

I know from being in the Entertainment and Game Hobby Industrys that you don't do that. Especially if you are responding with or as an official of a company that uses graphic art.

Secondly, and probably most importantly, gamesas has not asked for public art or the public to produce art for them to look at. Your interpertation of the reason for the Concept Art forum section is slightly mis-founded.

At no time has gamesas, Chris (forum person and developer), or any those that have produced the art shown in that forum section, soliciated or asked for other individuals art.

Legally, if they did, they could be held very liable.

Also, when you post to most forums (this one included) have a Terms of Use policy (usually linked at the bottom of the page), and in there it explains about how your posts (and attachments) are considered as who's property, etc.

Have you read that Terms of Use Policy of gamesas? Especially section 6 paragraph 2.

I am not trying to put you down nor stifle your desire to be creative, but honestly, you are assuming way too much in your opinion of what is or is not happening in the art section of these forums (and with gamesas).

Please note: I AM NOT an Official rep of gamesas nor a spokesman of them. I am only stating my opinion based off of actual experience in dealing with creative licenses, IP ownership, and Entertainment Industry as a Licensee of said companies.

Legally, it is company advised that it is better to say nothing and annoy potential customers than say anything and have legal issues.


Hope this helps clarify potential reasons as to why no one from gamesas has even commented let alone responded to any of your posts.

prosper,
you want to get some art pics up? ok, I know of a company that does SOMETIMES pic up fan art. want more? PM me. Learn a habit, it’s not wise to upset a mutie.
But sir, nobody worries about upsetting a Human.
That’s ‘cause Humans don’t eat people when they get irritable. Mutie’s are known to do that.

Green Haired and PProud!!!!

Don't feed the trolls.
