You didn't ask for permission to port these art assets and didn't credit anyone, what is up with that?

[Imaginos16]

Huh, that's weird, doesn't that come from shiptest? Golly gee, where's the fucking credit?

[Taomayo]

Credit the content creators for this on shiptest

[dwasint]

Didn't know these came from shiptest, looked for the pr which is: shiptest-ss13/Shiptest#1501 Ask requested please ask for sprite permission from the original artist, for the time being it will be un-tm'd

[aberrantQuesrist]

Alright, so I've been alerted to some massive miscommunication in regards to this PR. As someone doing the sprite recreations for bodies/tails here I'd like to publicly apologize for this mistake. The onus is on me, I should not have assumed any permission was already given. I'm going to make sure all the channels are properly followed from this point forward.

[KittyNoodle]

As the person other half of the people responsible for the port(it was a joint project between me and aberra) i was NOT made aware that permissions had not been already asked for, and had believed that she had gotten permission before handing over the sprites for me to get into the game.

[KittyNoodle]

As for why credit was not in the pr description, the pr description is very much not in its finalized state(hense the draft status) and i had not gotten around to getting down half the information as to what this actually adds other than a checklist. This will be rectified shortly.

[thgvr]

All good. We've had issues in the past of random forks/servers just taking some of our art without crediting whatsoever.

As for the permission bit, it's more out of a desire to see other places carve out their own designs and be unique in their own regard. In the end, I can't stop you from taking anything but I feel it will degrade the quality and direction of your development, in a similar manner that taking/porting random out of place assets would make Shiptest look worse visually.

for the sake of full clarity

you already have permission to use any asset licensed under CC-BY-SA (assuming the author is credited and the license is retained)
that's what creative commons is, it IS permission, it can't be revoked. thgvr was bein maybe a bit overzealous is all.
