Why did the price of Halloween spells shoot up so bad?

Is this hat duped? I'm not quite sure.

Using someone elses screenshots without permission

Hm, I'm not so sure, I think the guy might get intellectual property over the concept, I'll have to look it up.

Easiest way to understand it would be if it were legal to sell the image in a replicated print. In this case, Valve could easily order a cease and desist order on this image because it was made using their program and has their character featured with nothing added that is original to the maker.

This is why the art world falls under a heavy gray area due to commissioned (drawn) art because of the vague borderlines of what constitutes a parody, satire, or plain fair use. If it were to be a photo of a guy dressed as the soldier with that hat and pose, then the creator would have full rights due to it being a new concept related to the soldier, but not the soldier himself.

In this case though, nothing of a new concept was created, the character, background, hat, effect and method of taking the screenshot is not native to the one who took the screenshot.

I got his trade closed, next time its going to be a ban
Spoke to HelenAngel about it, she was quite accomodating about it.
I will upload the chatlog if she gives me the yes.
You AREN'T allowed to do this on outpost, not sure about on any other forums, but you get 1 warning then a ban I think.

That's honestly quite disappointing, he really had no reason to take it down at all, just taking a screenshot does not give you the right to tell others how it's used.
