Am I the only one who finds the rules of this site about using certain types of audio/music on your animated creations quite unfair?
Like, I kinda understand not using copyrighted music, but straight up audio from YouTube skits? I feel like that's kind of a reach. We just can't always reach out to the creators and ask them to use their audio whilst carrying evidence of their blessing 24/7.
It's a concern for me because I much prefer uploading lots of my animated works on here than on Newgrounds, given it's much friendlier to short clips & animation tests/WIPs in comparison (which constantly get lower ratings on NG). And I don't want to upload most of them without the audio that brings them even more to life. There just ain't many Flash hosting sites nowadays that support simple creations and it bums me out.
Wish we could ease down that rule a little, I don't really see how this could be that big of an issue in the future. It's not like all big creators care about their audio being used for artistic interpretations of their work, so long as they're credited for it.
