jally_muse Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 Does that violate the rules? Cause I could see why it might be a little sketchy. But at the same time, I wouldn't mind compensating someone for making a gallery lookup for me. So does that violate the rules of neopets? Assuming its ok on neopets is it against forum rules to negotiate such a transaction on say the graphics forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruto Posted April 4, 2015 Share Posted April 4, 2015 It's not allowed on Neopets, so we can't allow it here. You may not offer web design (such as making banners, dolls,blinkies, guild layouts, etc)or other services and use Neopets images or materials to earn money, Neopoints, or Neopets' Items. This is a violation of Neopets copyright and trademark rights and is strictly forbidden. Mouseykins, The Darkest Faerie and Lamppost 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rune Valentine Posted April 5, 2015 Share Posted April 5, 2015 Trading geaphics for graphics is fine, though. So you could consider doing that instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, just theoretically speaking you could trade graphics if the graphic doesn't contain Neopets images or materials? I mean like, the banners/dolls/blinkies. Because a guild or userlookup could be considered neopets material! :P I don't intend to plan to do such things, I'm just always looking for things like this in rules yaknow, and pointing it out/clearing things up.

Shane for Wax Posted April 6, 2015 Share Posted April 6, 2015 I guess technically you could say there's a loophole by using other peoples' copyright but at the same time would you then be violating the 3rd party's copyright? Fan art is a grey area tbh. However, there's also the fact that it's stated you shouldn't be trading neopoints or NC for any services rendered of any kind... regardless of neopets copyright/trademark. Pretty sure it's strictly like for like (NC for NC items) or np for non-NC items.
