adam did said this once in one of the sticky threads, didn't he?Please don't use other people's skin elements in your skin without the creator's permission.
Nobody likes it when people take your hard work and claim it for themselves, so make sure you ask permission from the original skinner and credit them in your skin when you use their skin elements.
Or why not make the entire skin original?
hhh.Thats true.The new rules from the old one
i'm looking to expand on them at the moment
That should settle it, esp. 1st bullet
now, this thread needs to lock due to the request is deniedalso, can you people please not post this stuff anymore. doesn't help. it's up to the moderators if the thread needs locking or not :3
I would like to see at least one more standard: a minimum amount (or percentage) of self made components.
I don't want to see a completely mixed skin, even if the person who mixed these elements got all the required permissions.

1 game mode (25%) should be sufficient enough.
My suggestion was an idea to ensure originality.OsuMe65 wrote:

Also
was not only referring to the total amount skinned elements of a single game mode, but the ratio from self made elements to elements made by other people (excluding default components).incelost wrote:

honestly, i don't think that matters too much. if people are going to upload 25% of an original skin. i'd rather people have 25% original and the rest default in that situation
My expression seems to keep failing.
An example to make sure we are talking about the same things:
A random user submits a mixed skin (and got all needed permissions). There is a total of 40 components. Only the cursor (= one component) is made by him.
This is ~1,5% (the percentage I was thinking about in my previous posts), which is lack of or originality imo. But with the current concept, this skin is absolutely fine.

honestly, not really overly bothered to go indepth on rules for mixed skins. i'd be much happier just saying no to all cases :p
Well, that is the most simple solution (and propably the bestdeadbeat wrote:

), but also the most restricting one.A situation like my example is very unlikely and perhaps unnecessary and/or results in a disproportional set of rules. I tend to act overcautious.
i am thinking of restricting them to project continuations since those are actually more welcoming.
it wouldn't really be useful, because right now, people just take Aesthetic and then rename it as their own
And the worst NOW osuskin.info in maintenance mode!
Now no where to post mixed skin & now i found some newbie skinner has post mixed skin
And now I'm just reporter for skinning forum.

does the skins made with "osu skin generator" count like mixed skins? I mean,the elements are easly accessible to everyone so you can create or customize a skin according to your preferences and then share it on the forum so the other users can appreciate your creation
Do not bump into old threads and yes its obvious that it counts as a mixed skin. Its not your own creation at all. You do not make the elements yourself.Lucaludo wrote:

Any generators are pretty much mixed skins out of the box, be it unauthorized to be distributed like this or not. People can share those via signature/userpage. While its their "creation", it contains other people's creations in it, this is why we don't allow them as they're not original content.
