The resources

I've only just noticed that you have a brush set entitled "Suicide". I don't know who made this, but i think the title is very insensitive and completely unethical. If you were sensitive to these matters, it would certainly offend you.

I simply ask for the heading on the download page to be changed to something a little less direct.

Hmmm. Well, its just the name that the author decided for the brush set. I think its a tad insensitive myself. Any ideas of alternate names? Any that don't involve changing the overall nature of the authors work are preferred!

Something more subjective. "Bloody"?

While it is named on a subject that can be sensitive, the set is an amazing collection. I don't really think it would be right to alter the name of a work by an artist. If you choose to change it I would suggest contacting the artist first, because as it seems, it is still his property.

I don't believe it's too ethical to change the title name of someone else's work...

Leave it be. Anyway, anything you name it will be offensive to somebody. Sorry.

Hmmm. Well, get me a petition of 10 people who are offended and i'll remove the file from the database. Otherwise, I think I'll leave it as it is. As the others say, changing the name of the file would be a betrayal of the author's copyright. You can always place a comment in the resource comments stating your displeasure with the name though. I know for sure that the original authors *DO* check their resource comments from time to time.
