Debot Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Hey, I'm working for a media company, that is working with call of duty atm for the championships. I had to design and animate a few things for them, but in order to do that, i had to have the artwork. So they sended me 16 Gig's of artwork, Logo's (PSD and EPS), fonts, 10k x 10k textures, style guides and a shitload more. Now my question is, a few friends of mine and other people wanted me to share those files. Is this smart to do? because if they find out im screwed hardcore.
Dreamliner Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 (edited) If you haven't signed a non disclosure agreement (NDA) then you can share as you please. But they still won't like that and it will give your company a bad name. If you signed an NDA and you share the files, you're subject to them suing you. They're most likely copyrighted too.. so I'd suggest no. Your call Edited March 13, 2014 by dreamliner 1
Jin Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Share > Court > Sue > Bad. You don't want to be sued because of your friends, now do you?
Piggy Wiggy Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I don't think you should do it but if you haven't signed anything like a disclosure form you should be okay but you would have to think about it and also you company may have made you sign one of them when you started working for them.
Nick Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 No, definitely not the smartest thing to do. I don't feel like I need to explain why it isn't either... unless I really need to.
Failed4life Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 I highly recommend you do NOT share these, as they are most definitely copyrighted and if they found out that you shared them, then you would most likely get your pants sued off
McNasty Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 To remain on the safe side, I'd keep it to yourself.
Dog_ Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 You know what they say: Sharing is caring!But it's not worth the potential consequence, unfortunately.
5Star Posted March 20, 2014 Posted March 20, 2014 (edited) If your the type of person that enjoys going to court and getting sued and most likley loosing 90% too all of your assets. then by all means share with your friends. maybe they will let you sleep on the couch when your finished with court. and your job terminates you. On the other hand. If your the type of person that does not fit into the category stated above, then no sir. do not share those files Edited March 20, 2014 by 5Star
Softarn Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 Add some Runescape characters into CoD! Would be funny!
Tony21412341 Posted March 27, 2014 Posted March 27, 2014 You know what they say: Sharing is caring! "share" me some of your IRL money then man :P @ OP No I definitely wouldn't share anything. Stay on the safe side of things and don't risk anything especially if it is not necessary.
DazzleSon Posted April 3, 2014 Posted April 3, 2014 Keep it to yourself. Wouldn't want to risk getting sued.
