Is it mine or not? A question for the Sims 2 community.

Feisty32:
i do understand your question jazcmx the fact is he created it if your gonna recolor or modify the item given to you as a gift ask him before you do so it is only fair and considerate and if he created it on his computer then it definately is his even though it was a gift to you if you want acknowledgement then ask him for acknowledgement.he has every right to say it is his also.



and no offense jazcmx is something this petty really worth ruining a friendship over? :(


please don't get mad or offended at me please just trying to help ya here. :( :-\

I get what you all are saying, but I don't think you all understand the question...

He created an item for the sims 2 and gave that item to me. Does that make the item mine?


If he made it then it is his weather or not he gave it to you. For example I do requests for people but it is still my work :)

Paden:
I have to go with Squinge on this one, considering he's been so very kind to make a couple of things for me, which I haven't shared because I don't have his permission. If he decides to share them with anyone else, I can't gripe because he is the one that made it in the first place. *hugs the pookins*

caffeinated.joy:
I understand what you're saying, but I have to agree with everyone else on this. If he made it, than whether or not he gave it to you as a gift, it's still his creation to do with as he sees fit. Perhaps it would have been nice, falling out or not, if he gave you a heads up about what he wanted to do, especially if he made this with the intent that it was for you and only you.

ancienthighway:
There have been times when I've created something specifically for one person.  I chose not to make it available for others and told this person so.  If she wished to share that would be up to her, but credit for creating it should still be given to me.  But that was my choice.  A creator can make their creations available for download as he or she sees fit.

As far as "ownership", in my opinion, there is no such thing on anything that's been made available for download.  The closest thing to it is a creator "owning" the responsibility for updating a creation, but even that is a blurred responsibility in some cases.

You received a gift that you probably had exclusive use of for a time being. Be thankful for that.
