For someone who's been arguing that they're grapes for the past several weeks, you've jumped onto the healing fruit bandwagon awfully quickly.
i posted on other board i know dromed name is purpturd and in game its called healing fruit,but they are suppose to be grapes but in 1998 it was not a easy task to make them look like the real thing due to limitation to design,basically they not going to put so much time into making a texture for in those times for a game,alot of games did junk design on items in game during those times,that is what makes them so great :)
and also mctaffer i joined "the order of the healing fruit" and left the downwinders,i took dewdrop with me and my intruder painting

I think the best thing is not create anything, that way you are sure you're not committing any illegality.

Some people here take the topic too much philosophically.
The copyright and licensing topic is a set of well defined rules and facts. I work close to those topics, together with their connection to distributing the intellectual property over the Internet, since my academic activities and till now, during my professional work and hobby initiatives. Violation of copyright wont make any penal or financial consequences for any of us, in this specific context (fan missions) and this specific intellectual property (256x256 textures). That's because the fact many of you write about, the copyright holder wont be interested in taking actions.
My concern is I was thinking about making a resource pack of stock-derived resources. Making derivative works creates possibilities and would make the contest creations more interesting. Providing it to all contestants would make the gameplay more attractive - if we try hard enough, we could repeat the TMA first time playing feeling on this special occasion. It could be achieved by eliminating the "yawn factor" of seeing the same visuals and audio again.
If you like the idea, please work on the resource pack. However, I'm afraid I can not participate in something that is questionable for me and is also related to something I earn my living for. That will be true until someone prooves the thing is legal. In the end, you can eventually expect from me a stock based fan mission :)

Just kidding Marzec, i share also your opinion, i voted for authors to use new custom material in the contest mission to avoid seeing over and over again the same Thief 2 stuff.
