The splash screen is not

The splash screen is not available because it contains copyrighted images. for apps that you wish to post here in the beta testing forums, use this splash screen. If it will be for your use alone, you can make your own splash.

It is a nonsense!

It is a nonsense! PortableApps is freeware, you speak about what copyrighted images? John has free of charge given source codes of the program why it should protect any shit templates? Sorry, for my English...

first of all it is open

first of all it is open source.

And there are copyrights for everything.

The splash is his idea and therefore he gets control over and it is his property.

even the source is copyrighted, even though it is freely given.

he protects it so that people won't use it without his permission

Please search before posting. ~Thanks

I don't want use trial

I don't want use trial template, because I freely program in NSIS language and I do not require beta testing of my builds. I will build portable versions of commercial software which I can't post here. Maximum that I can post here it links to my builds.

its best to use your own splash screen.

Anything you post here would require beta testing, to be sure that all of the PAF specifications are met.

Thanks that have not given

Thanks that have not given up! It is a translation of Russian idiom who knows that will understand... I Answer with all one post - to me are not necessary jpg, I do not wish to clean them in Photoshop, I shall not spread here a software which is not welcomed by John, a maximum I shall give the links, who wants that download and the most important - me to spit on copyrights and restricts - I from Russia! And last - I will redraw this f*cked splash (because of which useless words have been told so much) in Photoshop and post here normal layered images, and to whom it can not like to slide to a devil!

Look,

Dr.Di0NiS the reason that the splashes are not available for redistribution is because John is trying to build up trust in the brand that we have here. If anybody could publish software with the splashscreen and software that was not as polished as the rest of the software was released, our reputation for good quality software would be damaged, that is why all application releases that use the splashscreen go through John. I must warn you that if you post up any images that infringe on the copyright your account will be temporarily banned as you have been warned.

Try another way to

Try another way to understand. If you publish software and put John's name on it to claim it was his, that would be fraud. Even if your software was better or was produced in a more virtuous way, putting John's name on it would be wrong.

We wouldn't like it if John took something you created and put his name on it (without your permission).

There would be nothing wrong with your creating your own splash screen for your software. There might even be people here who would help you make it elegant and beautiful, if you ask nicely. But taking John's splash screen and putting it on your software without John's permission would not be acceptable.

John publishes the source code to his software. You can take the source code and do almost anything with it you like, as long as you don't claim he made the changes (and as long as you publish the new version of the source code).

What's so terrible about saying that you can't just John's splash screen on your own work without his permission?

I am tired to answer shit

I am tired to answer shit and to write it, this is a my last message at this forum, as well as I promised has made it splash screen in the Photoshop. It has 11 layers and you can change all that is necessary for you. My variant has only one lack, I do not have fonts used in the original therefore I used Arial Black. Sorry for my bad English and my stupid online-translator.

You can download the splash screen template from [Link removed by moderator SL as it contains copyrighted images, including the PortableApps.com logo.]
