I wander is it legal for me to simply copy text (from oddworld universe section) from official site or wikipedia, and to place download links from download section (in official odd site)...

Cute, cutie. I love the front and type of text. Reminds me of MO and AE. However, I don't think it is legal to copy text or downloads without OWI's permission actually.

Looks cool imho, pretty nifty & stylish. Technically, the writing would be illegal to steal if they wanted it to be - but I doubt they'd press charges over it. They're probably not all that bothered, it's only a piece of writing after all. Especially with OWI being nice people in general. They're against people like that, e.g. the reason Abe has three fingers after Abe's Oddysee. Basically something to do with a chinese group with insists that having 4 fingers is an insult, and you can only sell something with that image in their country if you pay a hefty fee. So Oddworld just disappointed them and got rid of a finger. Apparently Walt Disney pay alot of money for Mickey Mouse for that same reason, to keep his four fingered appearance. But then, it's not as if Walt Disney is lacking in money. :P

Hooray for unnecessary lectures!

And you may want to reassess that spelling of "chronicles"...

Goresplatter, it was the Japanese.

Another bizzare mistake :(.
Also, english is not ny native language. I used to live in france, and then, my parents decided to move in san francisko, cause my mother was from there. I have some relatives here...,. (and there I am, talking about my whole life with a complete strangers.)
That why I asked about copying text
:p.

I'm confused about two things:

1. Her profile says she's a male.

2. Her last post was on October 30th.

:fuzconf:

Since someone brought this thread up I thought I might as well mention those...
