You're a douche bag and a jerk for making this topic because you could have personally messaged Cybaster since you're so concerned with permission. And even still, from reading your post, they're just clones and not even actual edits of his actual lifebars. Why on earth would you need permission for something like that?

If they are clones I don't see why the need of asking for permission, just credit Cybaster for the original idea and that should do it. Making this topic wasn't a great idea thought

Just a few notes about the lifebars :
- Even though I always post screenshots with them, they're private lifebars not made by me, and never finished (simul mode not made at all).
- If anything, you can credit me for the reference pics if you want, but the lifebars were made by Black Dahlia Isis (can't remember if he wanted me tell people they were his or not, whatever). So yeah, credit him.
- Why in hell would you need permission to release lifebars you rebuilt yourself from screenshots ? ;P

Fyi, the Guild doesn't do the permission gag. Credit is the proper thing, but you are not forced to do that even. I can tell from your signature that you are used to dealing with a different set of rules.

As much as I wanna counter comment on that.......

Anyway, We as a group know its polite and the right thing to give proper credit to the original author of whatever resource we may use in our works. Normally we make attempts on contacting whomever gain to permission to use whatever but most of the time, that person may be unreachable for whatever reason. So as an alternative and being respectful, we make sure that the original author/developer is credited and noted as well when any of us release anything with borrowed content.

So yea, as far as this situation, We are not that much different from here.
Geo clearly started that the bars are clones of BDI's original idea. "he assuming it was Cybasters"
But I understand where he is coming from with his question and if I am not mistaken, isn't BDI a regular on the RandomSelect forums? Anyway Geo, I am sure you know what to do from here on out.

Yall know that your "club syndicate xtreme" sigs are too big right? Max sig size is 600x200. Thought I'd post it in the topic since you're both here.

I wasn't aware of that. I will take care of it later when I return home from work.
For now I will put mines in a spoiler tag, is that ok?

He was a regular here and at RS indeed, but he's been catched up by real life and barely has time for Mugen anymore. His profile says he's been last active 18 January 2011.
