This has moved from silly to almost criminally ludicrous.
The guy compiled a group of files so that it would be in one convenient, bite-sized tidbit. He stated his thanks to the anonymous folks who did the work. Perhaps he erred in not recognizing that the prima donna(s) who did all of that precious work would need GIANT, BRONZED RECOGNITION, HE'S A WITCH! BURRRRRRRRNNNNNNNN HIM!!!

Ahhh.. Not So Grasshopper! By use of the cunningly placed "Smilie" I showed that I was being humorous in suggesting that a human being could have a sense of humor surgically removed, or be born with out one. (Although if there was such a proceedure, I'm sure the IRS has it ). So.. I was being humorous in suggesting he did not have a sense of humor, and therefore, my sense of humor was functioning unimpaired. (Can you follow that? If so.. Please explain it to me! )

Aadik: Seems to me he offered to credit LL and LL ignored it and kept attacking.. but of course, I have been wrong before..

Fair enough SD, but I think he was perfectly legitimate in protesting his work being packaged into something else. Like countless people have suggested, if Killbrew, DD, and LL had been cited first, then this would be less of an issue.

I'm not sure what the majority thinks about this facepack but here are my positive and negative thoughts:
Positive: - It's a different way to get these pictures without having to download the individual facepacks. - SD and/or his affiliated Christian Youth web site is providing the online storage of the file so no costs are being passed on to anyone else. Negative: - No permission or credit given to the folks who found, cut/cropped/centered/resized/color enhanced/color-reduced/named-numbered/tested and originally posted these images. I was one of those folks, I spent over 200 hours putting together nearly half of the images in the "SkyDog Compilation of Fictional Photos", and I don't think it's unreasonable for me to be annoyed when he spends a few hours on this project and then puts his name to it. If the individual facepacks he took images from were hard to find that would be another thing entirely, but these facepacks are easy to find. I think a little effort to credit the folks who did the actual work on these would have been easy to do. SkyDog, if you see this post, is there any reason you did not provide a readme crediting the folks who did the actual work?

Ben,
Just say "fuck it", rise above it, and move on. If he wants to wallow in this mess then let him. I wouldn't waste anymore time with it. Just my .02.

Skydog made an honest mistake, the compilation is now taken down, and in between there was hours of drama and potential enjoyment for every lurker on the two boards. Now everyone should let it die.

Because he didn't think it would be such a big, FREAKIN' deal. He was doing it in an attempt to be helpful, got blind-sided by the resultant attack, and promptly removed the oh-so-dastardly file. Here's a sword if you'd like to fall on it.

From BOTH sides. C'mon DD, it's not like it didn't take two to tango. and if you're looking for a sincere apology from myself, there's one from me up a while ago. Sadly, there hasn't been one from LL calling all of us who participate at FOFC assholes.

I find it very strange that there is etiquette and manners for giving credit to someone who has used and abused other people's copyrighted work. I'm not taking sides here, but let's be honest - modding player pictures (that are someone else's work) is already borderline illegal (not making a profit from it helps). Saying SD was "bad" for not thanking someone doing borderline illegal stuff is just strange to me.
Of course, I do understand that we in this community like modders and their work, so SD should probably thank him. However, talking about "morality" and books/music hypotheticals, just doesn't make sense. This is a shady practice, but one we all like and enjoy. SD made a mistake - who here hasn't made one? He offered to correct that mistake - that seems pretty fair to me.

Bottom line: the "compilation" was a quicky afterthought to what I had really set out to do. I wasn't interested in doing a whole bunch more research. The 90 minutes or so I spent on this project in the first place is WAY more than I've ever spent on anything to "set up" a game. If I'd had the first clue that I was doing something "bad" or "taboo", I would have simply continued playing my dynasty career and not put it out.

that (with the addition of "I'm sorry") would have been an EXCELLENT 3rd post in the OOTP thread, instead of what you went with originally. I'm done - I made my point. Some of you seem to agree, some disagree. And some just seem to want to irrationally argue or take sides. I'm surprised that you (Ben) didn't see it the same way that I did, but that's life.

Agreed. Both Sides had their share of.. rather then call people assholes (including myself ), I'll say.. assholic behavior. I've already apologized for my actions, and I hope the folks who acted the same way on the other side of the fence do the same. Time to put this behind us.
