Did someone make that comic here? If so, who made it?

Pretty sure that's some copyright BS right there... Because he used his own font AND linked to his own personal website at the bottom of the comic (bottom right to scarybear.org)

Unless he gives props to SC for the template, angry internet mob ahoy!

OK, this is weird.  ScaryBear.org is its own web comic, complete with unique art.  Why would there be an SC.COM representing it?

Yeah, I just saw that too.  Has anyone notified brad about this? That's all 100% SC user graphics in there... Is there a scarybear user perhaps?

This comic artist looks like he just used templates stolen from http://www.wittycomics.com/ :/

More like StripCreator:

http://www.stripcreator.com/

In fact, the artwork is from StripCreator’s “office” set of characters and backgrounds, and was actually created specifically for the site, so it’s a dead giveaway.

A quick comic search for "TOP 10 BEASTIALITY SEX TOURS" brings back zip so it seems who ever made this is either a donor who deleted the comic, or more likely, simply made the comic and used print screen instead of publishing.

Not sure an internet lynch mob is warranted.

Do we know who drew the "office" characters, and if so, whether they intended to retain the copyright?

WittyComics.com does have some characters that are a lot like the ones in SC's office set.  Obviously this iPhone comic was made using SC, but the characters could have been WC's first.  Even if they weren't, the artist may have intended for them to be public domain, or otherwise reusable.

As for the template, I'm skeptical that Brad/SC could assert copyright over a certain way of arranging backgrounds and characters to look like a comic strip.  And even if he could, he probably doesn't want to: wasn't the whole point of making the renderer so that people could display their comics elsewhere?

It would have been nice if the author had taken the opportunity to drive a little traffic to SC, but I don't see a serious transgression here.

Injokester.  We'd have to ask him what he thinks.

It was such a waste of everyone’s time and money that even the Tokyo stadium’s rape robots apologized– something they were programmed specifically never to do.

I'm pregnant. I jump to irrational lynch mobbing before any sort of logic comes through.

That being said, I think the fact that he linked to his own website as opposed to giving some props to SC (or WC if that's the case) in addition to his website is what set me off.  I mean, Injokester spent a lot of time making the backgrounds and characters, plus brad spent the time to accept and code them in.  Even a tiny blurb of "Credit to stripcreator for template" would suffice.

Then again, this is the internet. It wouldn't be what it is without people just taking.

I just found this in the FAQ.  Has it always been there?  I guess it must have been.

Can I use my comics outside of Stripcreator?

It says that only some categories are free to use.  The office and Injokester categories aren't among them.  And it doesn't say anything about backgrounds at all (which seems like a significant omission).

Maybe a lynch mob is warranted after all.

Hilarious comic. I was going to leave a comment on that page, but couldn’t see how.

I don't care how this turns out, my comic got some eLOVE (^_^)
