TomDixon77 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 It might be because the screenshots are too small to make any sort of detail out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're being very defensive - you should accept that some people don't like it. Plus the screenshots are far to small to make judgement on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

swirlypop69 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 I've seen this skin on another site, downloaded it and tried it out. Trust me, desmond7's opinion is more than valid. It's horrendous. Keep trying though Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SSGTroyer Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 On a constructive note, I personally don't like the intense differences with the bars/stripes. The "sparkles" in the tree menu re distracting to my eye as well. And it's just a recoloured default skin...no real refinements. Like it or not, the screenshots are indeed too small to make out enough detail - like those gold things on the squad screen...are they stars, or morale? The TV mode screenshot doesn't really do much either - looks like every other TV mode out there with the widgets closed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

desmond7 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Igronant, why critise like that when so much time and effort goes in?I'd love to see you make a skin but that's the easiest line to come back with. Most of us don't even attempt it as it's far too complex, and we do appreciate most efforts that are put into making skins. But even if i don't make a skin i can still pass comment on it as it effects the game i play and how long i can play it for. I couldn't play using this skin for more than 2 mintutes without me needing shades. However, i don't understand the slagging off of Klasa, it's brill!

dz47 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 The OP has said this isn’t his skin, just one he found on another site. Correct me if I’m wrong on this, but isn’t it considered proper etiquette to get a designer’s permission before posting their work around? Have you done this? And on another note, I’ve been on a few threads now where the OP has made comments criticizing others points of view in semi-aggressive tones. What gives mate? Don’t you like the fact that others have opinions that might differ from yours? It seems not, which makes me wonder why you would bother being a part of a ‘community’ at all. And for what its worth, I agree with the consensus on here. Despite the efforts of the skin designer (and no, I don’t make my own skins so I’m not knocking his efforts), this is not an appealing skin to me either.

radestock Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Come on, that's a little OTT. We have some community rules we expect people to follow but it would be ludicrous if linking to something you like was prohibited. There is no harm in it whatsoever. He's not claimed it was his or re-uploaded it anywhere, it's a link to the original website. Nothing has been violated, from copyright to basic etiquette. As for the OP he's been perma banned for a week or so. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz47 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Well like I said above "correct me if I'm wrong...." So now you've corrected me, but i think you've read a bit too much into my post, because i don't really think it was "OTT", more of a question (which I thought was clearly indicated by the ? at the end) than an 'accusation'. And I've seen similar things (ie posting others work without permission....some people seem to be very picky with what FM sites their work is published on) criticised far more strongly on these forums before, by general posters and mods alike. But yeah, anyway. My comment was also based on the fact of how defensive and antagonising he was in criticising others for daring to say they didn't like a skin that was not even his own creation. Glad to see he's been banned as we can do without that sort of 'contribution' on here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
221.214.213.37 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 Radestock is a MOD I think he knows a bit more about the rules than you :silly: and e hasn't claimed to have made it or have any input in it just to show people just simmer down a bit.

Glad to see he's been banned as we can do without that sort of 'contribution' on here. You were basically questioning the right to hyperlink to something that wasn't the linker's own work. I'm as guarded as the next guy when it comes to my stuff but to me your suggestion that simply highlighting something you like is wrong seemed an over-reaction. Sharing stuff you find with others is an integral part of the community, word of mouth etc. Certainly I'd like to know where mods/other users have taken a different stance to this before? Unauthorised redistribution (uploading to another site, adding to a 'superpack') and modification (editing and releasing as a different skin, using code and graphics to put into another skin) are certainly no-nos but linking back to the original source because you like something should really be encouraged rather than punished Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dz47 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 221.214.213.37 Wow, thanks for your contribution to this discussion. Yes I do know that radestock is a mod, so thanks for pointing that out in capitals for me. And I didn’t claim that he was claiming to have had anything to do with making the skin, as you seem to be alluding to. Maybe you should read my posts again mate. And I’m not really sure why I need to “simmer down”, wasn’t actually aware that I was boiling over. radestock Again, as I said above, my original post was quite clearly stated as a question. I thought that posting someone else’s work without permission was frowned upon, based on reactions on similar topics on other threads. I wasn’t 100% sure that this was the case, which is why my post clearly said “correct me if I’m wrong , but…” and ended in a question mark. I mean, how much clearer could I be that this was my understanding (right or wrong) and not a hard statement of fact? I have no problem with being corrected on my perception being wrong by a mod, but I do take offence to my posts being misconstrued into something they clearly aren’t, and being accused of being “OTT”. As a mod, maybe you should read posts a little more closely to understand the intent before making your own ‘OTT’ response, or otherwise give the poster the benefit of the doubt rather than writing responses that are accusatory. A simple "no you are wrong, its fine for him to post that link" would have been all that was needed. Question answered, job done. No need for the "OTT" assertion at the beginning.

radestock Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I wasn't attempting to accuse you yourself or your posts as being over the top. I'm sorry if you took it as a slur against yourself. To reprimand someone for simply hyperlinking to an original source whilst clearly stating it's not their work would be excessive, inordinate, over-the-top. As is having to ask a designer's permission to link back to their work because you think others might like it. That's all I was attempting to say when I used OTT, that there is a considerable difference between what's being done here and redistributing or modifying someone's work without permission and to judge them in the same way would be an overreaction. I hope this clears things up as really the tone is starting to turn a little nasty (targeting my mod status etc) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
