Hi all,
We, the OPP team have decided to try and convert all the current (and future) assets of the OPP to the public domain. More specifically, a cc0 license. Until now we used the CC-BY-3.0 license, which allows the assets to be used for any purpose as long as the creators are credited. However, this has a few complications which we weren't aware of when this project started:
All the problems above would be solved by putting the work in the public domain. This would also mean, that unlike with the original license, no crediting is required anymore. The OPP project will always highly recommend crediting to the users, but we would never be able to enforce this anyway. Would you agree to put the images you've contributed to the project in the public domain? Please let me know! If not, or if we don't hear from you, we might need to remove your assets in future packages of the project :( I will be sending out private messages to each contributor, and make a list here of people who agreed to have their OPP assets in the public domain. A final notice: I understand very very little about laws and licenses. I hope the above is kind of correct and makes sense, but if you understand this stuff better, please do advise me! People who agreed to have their OPP assets in the public domain: > Hapiel > Damian > Noburo (Gabriel) > Jetrel > Diggyspiff > Surt > yaomon17 > Crow > Buch > Kazen > RileyFiery > nickthem > Stava > Conzeit > Skeddles > Ellian > KEtsumio > A3um > DawnBringer > Squirrelsquid > Noaqh > gogglecrab > anodomani > Darchangel > Oh look a Harmonica! > limes > Pistachio I realy hope we manage to get at least 80% of all the assets in the public domain, as I strongly believe it will make the project much more usable for game developers! Enjoy creating, and thanks for considering to convert your assets! - The OPP team: Damian, Gabriel, Hapiel. Edited by Hapiel - 25 June 2015 at 1:30am |

It has been one week since I send forum messages to everyone, and so far everyone who replied (10 people) agreed to put their works in the public domain!
Thanks a lot :D That makes 14 artists whos OPP work is now in the public domain! Now I'll go and try to dig up all the email addresses of those who did not reply yet, and hope I can reach all of the contributors :) Edited by Hapiel - 09 May 2015 at 5:57am |
