Dear JUNDROO & Simple Planes users,
I think we should implement a feature where the original name of the creator should pop-up first then move on to the page where they download the creation.. It is a bit unfair for the creators since their name can be barely seen at the top bar, which half the players probably won't see. People who mainly do this are those players who wants upvotes. I'm just suggesting it and in my opinion, it's a great idea.
Thanks JUNDROO & fellow readers
My eyes are trained to see "based on" text. But maybe its a good idea.
@joeysellers Thanks for the feedback! Now I understand how the website works. I thought that the creation still belongs to the creator once you upload it. Thanks Joey
Consent is not required. Once you publish your design, just like any good artist in our world, it simply no longer belongs to you, but the community.

I understand that the text for the predecessor may be too small, like reading through some fine print, so that's something we'll keep in mind the next time we need to update the website. What's the solution? Make the font size bigger? Animate some fireworks with some fanfare-blaring audio?
I agree. Usually people will post mine but rarely get an upvote, but it just kinda feels weird that there isn't any....consent?in some cases the only thing changes is paint and maybe on fuselage block. Or additional engines. Just seems like a cheap move. @joeysellers @BaconEggs
@joeysellers I understand that the original creator can get bonus points. But the text for it is too small ( in my opinion ) and half of the downloaders probably don't see it. ( P.S. O_o HI JOEY!!!!! )
Personally I don't care about bonus points or stealing. This is a part of the human nature. That's why I even don't get the idea of 'url=somecrazyauthorhashedmodellink"' placed in the XML, where everyone can edit it to 'url="myhashedmodellink"' or 'url=""'
@joeysellers But.. no one logically would upvote a re-post of a pile of effort, blood, sweat, and tears. I think this idea is good, you should consider it being added.
Lol, grandchildren designs
If the concern is about points, the original creator earns bonus points when others copy their work and receives upvotes.

It's like a pyramid scheme, so if you find others copying your planes, with minor or major tweaks, you can sit back and bask as other people drum up the points for you.
