Title: Buttons
Post by: Blue-ninja on March 14, 2007, 06:30:15 pm
Do any of the SoldatForums creator have these buttons I need for a private forum(Not soldat-themed)? These are the buttons I need:

IP
Sentbox
Savebox
Who is online
LockedPoll Button

Post them as images or gifs. Thank You ;D

Not really forum news/support, but better here than in the lounge. More chance that flies or other admins will notice it here too. - JayBee

Er, why can't you just get them yourself from saving the images from the forum that you want?


Maybe I'm missing the point of what you're asking for

He wants someone to make graphics of said buttons for his own board. It'd probably be a good idea to tell what kind of general appearance you want them to have, Blue-ninja (like, what is your board based on?, etc.)...

Ah, if that is the case... this needs to go back to the lounge.

Blue, neither of the people who made the graphics for these forums are still members.

So lemme get this straight, you wanna just rip the gifs from this forum and use it on your own?

yeah, I was wondering that myself, though he said it wasn't a featured forum... I'm not quite sure what is going on.

I'm not sure if you should be allowed to use these images or not.  I need to speak to the other admins

After discussing it with FliesLikeABrick, we decided to go with this license:

http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/

As long as you attribute SoldatForums as the original creators, you may do whatever you wish with these images.

I originally thought he wanted the default buttons this forum uses...

Consider it a complient that I'm using your buttons for a website that I'm not gonna show and URL of. Basically, I'm not going to rip-off your buttons and sell them. They are cool, and they go well with the webpage'
s colors.
How is it a compliment when you use someone else's work and call/use it your own? If you didn't have trouble looking for those buttons gifs, you probably rip the whole forum off and we wouldn't even know about it...

Where did he say he was going to call it his own?

It's sorta private, not soldat-themed, and I won't type the link here, because of internet stalkers. It's just for a club.

Can you send ElephantHunter and I a link privately please?

There is no IP "button"; it just shows #s for the admins in the bottom-right, from what I can tell (not even mods can see them)

unless you're asking about (http://forums.soldat.pl/Themes/Soldat/images/ip.gif) but I think we're just using the default one

UPDATE: Found the directory to hundreds of images from this forum. See. (http://forums.soldat.pl/Themes/Soldat/images/) Pretty cool, huh?

Except for the fact that you are totally avoiding our request to PM us with a link to your forum. We're nice enough to let you use the images, but we'd like to see where they are being used.

Please send Flies and me a PM today. Thanks.
