A lot of us contribute to the uccw app by sharing what we create. Through this sharing we've seen some amazing and creative things be born. We share with everyone with the assumption the work shared is not exploited for profit by some person who just rebrands it with a different name, and sells it as their own. In most cases a courtesy email is not even given asking for permission to use the work. Understanding it is distributed freely by the creator, they still have creative rights to that skin if you decide to redistribute for sale.
That being said I've always been taught to do the right things growing up, like don't lie, don't steal and be generous when you're able. So... since some people find it hard to do so, I think it would be beneficial to maintain a thread of shame listing those users who operate outside the realm of honesty. Thefts who are caught stealing other people's skins/work without permission will be posted here and 'outed'.
Let's see if public shame can do what your sense of right & wrong could not.

stole skins made/modified by me and posted on the play store for sale. Email correspondence for him to remove them back in November were brief and obviously ineffective.

I have not given him my consent to use this, nor has he asked me, blackbearblanc, or pooely .
Note, He has also taken pooely Google now weather beta and sold that on his own before being caught and having it taken down.
Please take a min and visit his play store links and report the skins and send him an email of appreciation. An email to Google would be appreciated as well.
Thank you.
If you have seen or know of anyone else using someone else's skin or work without permission, please post the info here
