Damned/Trenloe - hi guys - I think you're being way too heavy-handed here. The OP is entirely within rights to share what he has shared, since NO trade dress is indicated, colours cannot be trademarked (excepting Cadbury's royal purple) and this slab bears no similarity whatsoever to the AHQ tiles. The OP is entirely free to share this - Trenloe if you are not familiar with AHQ's design I can assure you they are hand-painted intricately detailed dungeon tiles - not a blank gridded slab. If you sanction THIS user, you're in for a world of pain setting that as the bar for infringement, since I can similarly say that Fantasy Grounds resembles an AHQ tile and uses the same colours and is therefore a derivative work. That is a fair comparison of what you are claiming as IP here.
What they have shared is a gridded block!

Oh. Note to Self, READ and COMPREHEND the full thread before commenting. Sorry about that.
They look really beautiful, but unfortunately I'm only able to buy stuff from Steam - not the rest of the internet.
...and the tiled maps that I finally produced later, they may not be top quality, but they're actually good enough for my limited usage.
Thank you anyway.
