Shaffy's toolbar icons...(that are not his)

from WinCustomize Forums
Can someone (the mods or something) please explain gently to Shaffy that the toolbar icons he is using are not his?  They are Dangeruss's. (thankyou Vstyler for finding that out)  We have both told him in the comments section of his skin wb called jungle.  He updated, but the toolbaricons are still there...either this guy dosent understand english or he just dosent understand... he has said nothing about permission ect.. so can someone please point him in the right direction? I know we all make mistakes.....

If someone will provide a link to the skin they are alleged to have come from, I'll investigate and take appropriate action as required

OK, after doing some digging, the toolbar icons are from Retro (essorant). Situation is in hand

Unless Retro had chrome toolbar icons and star "gleams" in its title bar button glow images, which I'm pretty sure it didn't then it wasn't from Retro. The Shaffy2 theme I looked at before it was taken down definately used Airframe by Dangeruss elements.

Either way, it's gone now anyway, so no big deal.

About Jungle: I have spent many hours on this skin and it has never been my intention to make it look like someone else's. That's why I took Kitty's comment seriously and removed my skin from the site. After the second upload it seemed that there were still some elements in it that other skinmakers have in them too. This surprised me and I didn't know what I had to do to change this. My apologies for the fact that my skin had elements in it that others have too, I didn't know and I didn't steal them! I have only started to make skins since April 2007 just because I like to do it, not to earn money from them. That's why it wouldn't be any fun to use someone else's skin would it? Just for inspiration. Too bad, Jungle is a nice skin..

People make mistakes, even I have. Once i borrowed an ini file from a rainlender and thought it was cool to use it as my own. wrong, bad , blah, you cant. it applies with everything here that people create. you need permission, and then after all that, you need to tell people in your description that permission was granted ect. you did steal them, not intentionally perhaps, but its classified as such. or better know as ripping. as for too bad jungle is a nice theme, the answer is simple, ditch Dangeruss's toolbar icons and make your own.............

shaffy2 genuine mistakes are not a problem, everyone makes them. Why don't you try again with this skin? Open the WB folder and delete all the files which are not yours, then you will be able to see in SkinStudio which files you need to include yourself.

Don't give up - there are a lot of people here who will help you out if you need assistance, just ask!
