The textures you uploaded become also part of the system. You say, “but I made it with photoshop.” That is, in theory, correct, but only in theory. You need a viewer, you need a visualization, a windlight system, else no one sees the texture. And even worse. In a grid system, the resources are not centralized. So where are the textures you want to set a claim on? On AWS? Since the Supreme Court ruled in the case Cariou v. Prince photographers know the dilemma they are in. You copy and modify what you copied and you are fine. CUT & MERGE Art was born.
Now it shall be easy to find out who is ERVARE SCHERENGEBER and who is Neil Armstrong. Both are going to Amerika.
