Sure. Filefront just hosed my login account for some reason, so it would probably be a good idea to get it now since they delete files due to inactivity. I'll let you know when there's a new pack or something so you can update the link whenever possible.

Thanks again.

So are you giving me permission to host your files on my server ? Are the pictures copywrite protected at all before I do this ?

Yeah sure, go ahead. I already put a readme file with credits and everything you could imagine to make it as "legal for personal usage" it could be.

But is that all that is needed ? I am a little worried about the legalities of that. Did you contact said companies and clear it with them. Most people have a cow when you modify there work and then rebrand it.

If you are too worried about legalities, you probably shouldn't use them. I don't think you would get sued over them or anything, but you might get a cease and desist order over them. Other game companies that created that art might not be so happy to see "Everquest" (direct competitor for some of them) plastered all over them! Of course, unless your server was getting a ton of attention, it isn't likely anyone with power to do anything to you would ever see them. Pretty low risk over-all, but some risk is there if you are concerned.

I say we take 1k WoW screenshots and put Everquest on each of them and then spread all over the web! Hit WoW where it hurts the most!

or... take 1k EQ screenshots, put WoW tag on them and spread then all over the web! And hit WoW where it hurts!

basically I don't care what you do as long as it hurts WoW
