Did I say that Frank can't use my score-numbers? No I didn't. I clearly stated that if he wants to use it, he could use it, but CREDIT THE ORIGINAL CREATOR.Roley wrote:
The bottom line is, if you want to use my, or anyone's, (for that matter) skin elements in a skin you made, go ahead. But please credit the user who originally made the elements on the skin thread or in a notepad file in the skin folder instead of claiming it as your own.
As I stated earlier, the font that was used for the score-number skin elements along with the elements Frank solely created was the font called "DFPKanTeiRyu-XB.ttf", , and is available to download from uudsic, MediaFire, and I'm pretty sure lots of other places too. Frank, along with some other osu! members (including myself), has downloaded the font to use to make the altered Taiko skin, hence why it may look like the score-numbers he includes in his skin is his, and not mine. It's not his. You can download Frank's skin and the authentic taiko score-numbers I released in this post and you will notice that:
- 1. The pixel dimensions for "score-0.png", "score-1.png" and so forth matches the pixel dimensions for the corresponding numbers in Frank's skin
2. The smoothing and kerning of each score-number in both bundles are the same
3. The only difference between the two is that "score-x.png" in Frank's skin is different from the one I made; the one he made is , while the one I made is
>>>, however, is still used as "default-x.png" in Frank's skin.
>>>The 回 "score-x.png" that Frank made, moreover, has a different kind of edge smoothing technique than any other score-number I made. If I were to do the same "score-x.png" for 回, it would look like this:
Bottom line is, and look now I have to repeat myself again, just credit the original creator before using their content in your own skin, map, or ANYTHING. Even if they are just score-numbers, I put effort and time into carefully rendering the score-numbers to look neat and usable, and the score-numbers are one of the most important skin elements to a skin. If you just have the decency to credit the original creator, everything will be settled. I shouldn't have to spend time proving and creating giant posts just to prove a point.
