ScarletEve Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Almost a year ago I purchased a sig on these forums. I paid over 2 mil for it, but never used it. It was of myself and my bf, without names on it, and I was dumped before my sig making competition was over so I saw no need to use it, plus it kind of hurt ya know. :oops: Anyway, my question is this: If you purchase a sig from someone, is it considered rude or impolite to change colors on it if you finally decide to use it a year later for a different purpose? I have not changed the artwork, nor am I claiming it as my own...I am simply wishing to change colors of an outfit on it. I'm mildy torn on this, and I want some opinions from the usual sig makers =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
misterxman Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Long time no see Eve, tough question there. It greatly depends on the original artist's wishes, if he/she'd want their stuff edited by the owner, some artists wouldn't mind, others would not let anyone edit their stuff, not even the owner. My suggestion would be to PM those artists see if they give you permission to be 100% sure. If you can't get in contact with them, I guess some small edits to fix things up for only yourself, since it's your sig, couldn't hurt. In your case, changing the color of an outfit to then use it as your own sig again would seem alright, so I wouldn't worry about that too much. Pixel sigs by me.Pixel Art Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
remoteman Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 i was under the impression that once you bought the sig it was yours for doing what you wanted with? i don't think that changing colours is really much of a big deal.

np_tyler Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 I think it's fine to change it. As long as you don't claim that you made it, I don't see any reason why it would be a problem. - Np Tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jdprs Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 You might wanna contact the person who made it and ask him about it. Because i once made a sig for somone, and they edited it, and made it look like crap, and i wasnt too happy about it, however if you cant contact them, then they wont see it:P So Go ahead. http://jdpr.deviantart.com/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
