Question for Spriters/Admin

Sorry I didn't know where to post this exactly. Long time lurker, messed with few mods and did a few minor patches for my own personal use. But a question I did have, is this site/spriters affiliated with dusk tactics by any chance? http://dusktactics.com/doc/gallery/screenshots . I noticed they are using quite a bit of sprites from your site, and I just wanted to make sure that you guys are affiliated and not someone trying to poach your sprites. Sorry if I am stepping out of line in anyway I didn't see anywhere to post this.

They're using these sprites as placeholders.

QuoteSome of the images used as placeholder art are copyrighted by their respective owner, Square Enix. These resources include custom sprites by the artists at http://ffhacktics.com/.

I think I vaguely recall them, or perhaps someone else, asking about whether anyone would have any issues if some of the custom sprites were used as placeholders, and no one seemed unhappy with the idea, as long as credit was given.

I doubt anyone at Square Enix would notice or care, but what's the legality of custom sprites that use bits of copyrighted material?

The Dusk Tactics people may want to audit these sprites against the existing vanilla ones some day, for their own sake.
