The Ambiera forum policy may not allow hotlinking to other hosts but it's not a law. Aggregation sites (whim deliberately collect links) are not responsible because they are not hosting any content. Youtube is under a different law because youtube is the host and when you upload to youtube, you must legally declare that you are the content creator and/or the intellectual rights owner. Where coppercube is concerned, you are allowed to use any content for personal use.You are also allowed to distribute or sell copyrighted material if you have express permission from the content provider but you can make a game with models from anywhere you like. All my games have copyrighted material - models, graphics, sounds, fonts,music etc - but it will never be an issue because they are only ever for personal use - not commercial use.Also - copyright is specific to each Country - it is not globally applicably - for example, ifI spend £thousands copyrighting one of my models in the UK, that copyright would not be applicable in the USA or Russia (for example). In the case where an item is copyrighted globally (which is rare and expensive) the ownus lies with the copyright holder to prove they own the item - in most modern countries - you are innocent until proven guilty - so you can use (and even sell) the models until you get prosecuted (at which point your activity may become illegal) - and you either get a copyright strike or pay a fine to the property owner. To make it cleared - you would assume that if I used a Sonic character in a game, it should be banned here - but how would you know if I had express permission to use the model - how would you know I am not in fact the creator of the soinic character - it would need to be proven in a recognised court of law. Like I say, Ambiera "policy" may differ- that's why Niko and JIC are free to delete any content they want - for any reason.[/quote]
