Habbo background = rip!!

[Black_Apalachi]

Well it wouldn't really be a debate, it would be a simple answer, no.
If the created image has absolutely no reference to habbo, then Sulake have no rights over it at all, they don't own all pixel art.

Well obviously :rolleyes:. My post was asking about pixrl art that looks like Habbo charcters/objects without being actually copied and pasted.

All you guys are wrong [well, most of them]

No, just because the Saloon is smaller, doesn't mean its not the same. Say we go look at a picture on photobucket or imageshack. Its small but when you click it, it gets bigger.
Thats probably what they've done. [I can't think of another explanation, cropping it would get the pixels weird.]

And Sulake stole Hank Mccoy's habbo-abs, why wouldn't they steal anything else?
They know they can get away with it. If Sulake DID steal the saloon without recognising reinout for it, then they can get in trouble. Even if he used some of sulake's stuff, they're allowed to. They're not allowed to steal alts, however.

Since they have changed it alot, it is technically theirs. So you're saying if you made a habbo alt of a house, then habbo released a background with a house in, they have stolen your work?

REINOUT--D could have given them permissions to "use" his alt for all you know, and even if he didn't... They didn't give him permission to put habbos in his alt. They haven't told him to remove the habbos, and reinout hasnt asked them to remove their slightly similar building, therefore it does not matter.

They made it bigger...

That is like be getting the HABBO logo and stretching and saying it's mine.


No one knows if Sulake haven't hired this person as graphics staff for them..
Or even purchased the item from him.

Just because the building is in with other Habbo images doesn't make it Sulake's property.

E.g: If I opened paint and put a Habbo room in there then C+P a coke cola bottle in there Habbo wouldn't own the coka cola bottle.

Exactly, so unless Habbo have had permission to use the image OR the image belonged to them before he used it they have ripped it.

Reniout--D or whatever his/her name is, didn't they work with habbo on a few things? Maybe they gave them the picture.
Maybe Habbo didn't use it until now.
Besides, who actually cares.

I'm just one person, not a group man
