Hi,
I had drawn a tree with Pyxel and uploaded it as a free asset on opengameart.com. For this I made a screenshot of the tree inside Pyxel and uploaded that picture as a preview of the tree itself.

Someone commented below that it is not allowed to do so because licensing issues etc.

Have a look at what I mean

So my question is can not I show a screenshot of Pyxel? Is it violating terms of license?

Hi MoonStar

The License is not from PyxelEdit, it seems to be one that opengameart uses. I haven't looked into it, but I believe the problem lies in that you're uploading a screenshot, instead of just the tree as a png or something.

If you export the image and scale it x3 (for the preview), then I think you'll be fine uploading to their website. If not, then you may have to read up on their license.
