A quick note on how to properly credit the release of fan created content that is inspired by the Filsinger Games and its various product brands.
Please do not attribute Filsinger Games copyright and/or trademark credits to any work that isn't copyright/trademark protected by Filsinger Games.
Example:
Creating a bootleg card with stats and art of a real world wrestler (ie. Randy Savage) and then placing the Filsinger Games copyright/trademark information on the bottom of the card as a credit.
In this example the subject of the card (Randy Savage) has not given permission to Filsinger Games for his likeness to be reproduced. There is no reason for that information to appear anywhere on the card as it can be misleading.
As an alternative please be sure to list the following info on any and all game cards (be the subject fictional or non-fictional) and with-in any corresponding handbooks:
'Inspired by Filsinger Games at www.filsingergames.com'
'Created by (your name and whatever additional credits you feel are appropriate)'
Doing so will give proper attribution to the Filsinger Games system while differentiating that the content is being produced by an outside source.
Thanks for your understanding and cooperation.
