littleork Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Hey I have been working on a player owned castle and I want to have my own banners with a specific logo. Since I am not really good at doing art, I took a screenshot of a banner that I did in Diablo 3, I then took the screen shot into gimp and did a texture out of it for a banner. Is that consider ripping or illegal? I have a feeling that it is but since it is a screenshot and I didn't take the actual texture it makes me a little unsure. If it is in fact, illegal, then I will just try to find someone to do them for me but wanted to check first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lisnpuppy Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 Even though you took a screen shot yourself and did not just steal the image out of Diablo game it is still copyright material...We would most likely ask you to take it out of your mod. Diablo and Blizzard have rights to all the images of their games. If you actually drew something like it (And I don't mean trace it) then it would be fine.

Alright that's what I thought, my mod is still far from release so figured I would ask now so I wouldn't waste time putting them all over my mod. Thank you!
