There is a difference between editing and recoloring.

Editing is taking a template and changing it and making it very different from the original so that the two could never be confused.

If you do this and give credit to the maker of the graphic you edited its okay, but ask permission.

Now if you take another graphic and just barely change it/recolor it that's not editing and it's not okay.

If you do that and don't give credit or don't ask the maker first then it's stealing because your claiming you made the graphic when you just barely edited it and its basically the same/recolored.

Stealing is a big deal, and if you steal a graphic you will be harassed, mocked, hated, and reported, if we actually get some gps that are moral you'll get the stolen graphic removed with no refund.

I try my best to stop these thieves by pointing out stolen graphics, harassing, reporting, and doing all I can to get them removed.

I have abused a eurocenter database glitch (now patched) that allowed me to use another eurocenter app to contact other accounts on graalonline via pm, clicking my name would bring the player to a blank user profile with my gender and name and nothing else, since my graalonline accounts have been banned by XOR,

I used the glitch to impersonate a eurocenter employee and threaten thieves that if they did not refund the stolen graphic I would manually remove it from their account and they would not receive any money back, and that if they upload any more copyright or stolen graphics I would ban them from the uploads system.

10/13 times this worked on them. 8/13 never stole again as far as I have found.

What I did was wrong, but if the staff wouldn't do it, I knew it was up to me. I'd do it again if I had the chance.

A note to all thieves out there, you will be caught, it is wrong, and it isnt a victimless crime. I and other GFXers will do whatever we can to make your life living hell. Just because staff may ignore it and spout crap about eurocenter owning all graphics and it being sharing and that it isn't a big deal doesn't mean your safe. Some of us around here have a lust for vengeance.
