EDIT: This is a test for the modification I've made on Asche's BW Blanks. I haven't finished the Basic, Stage 1 or even Stage 2 ones but this is merely just a test on 1 of the types I've finished.

I can't take away the fact it looks nice, definately nice, but the above negates that niceness for me personally

Delta Nite said:@Neko: I think that editing the gradients on the flavour and art boxes, stage bars and such is what disapointed asche.
@Reggie: I mean no offense to Blui, the blanks look gorgeous, but he didn't 'cooked them up'. He edited another person's work. asche states in his readmes and download pages that blank editing is not allowed. You saying that "Once you release your stuff to the internet, there is no guarentee it will be totally safe from being modified in any way" is pretty rude.
@Blui: The card looks amazing and I bet you've put a lot of effort on those. I also did something like that to asche's blanks in the past, so that's why I know he dislikes it. If you still want to make Shiny cards, you could always use Shining Bill open format BW blanks!

Delta is correct, to a certain point.
Its not how his have turned out though, as I said they look great (although I personally wouldn't have gone about a few things the way he has, thats personal preference) But more to the point where no one asked me if they could change them
My main gripe is this. Lets say we have a situation where someone isn't as well "versed" in blank/fake creating. They edit my blank(s) without permission, make it look like something I'd personally never do, but they keep my name attached to it. Everyone would then question wether its my work, or flat out believe it is, when it wouldn't be.
On top of that, it could be like Blui's ad turn out pretty nice. The fact would still remain people would believe its still mine, but heavily edited (if stated) and assume I had something to do with it anyway.
Its just something I don't particulary like is all, and wh its great others make alternative blanks as well. Another great thing is Billybob (ShinyBill) releases his in .PSD format so anyone can do anything with them and link back to him. He doesn't mind and thats great
I however do, thats all.
Delta did ask for permission for the E-Cards I think it was, last year sometime, his tured out great, he had permission, all went swimmingly. So I'm not entirely without reason
Anywho! Wall of text over, we don't really need to overtake Blui's thread as its for his art submissions etc, just be aware that its something I and quite a few others take seriously, as does PokeBeach and other sites. Permission is everything

Ah, now I see why. Okay so scrap what I said in the PM about your watermark, there'll be a new one for that.
(Oh yeah I'd appreciate it if we could try to stop this now that Asche and I have resolved the issue, the blanks will be at your local dA soon).
(Maybe copying that part of the card, turning fill off and just adding a 1px shadow of sorts, just to define it a tad more.)
