Hey all,
I'm using a graphics pack for my missions that hasn't been updated for ages and I don't think the owner plays anymore; is there any way for me to download them all and make my own?

that shouldn't be allowed as its there work and not fair use
But they're not playing anymore and won't update otherwise; don't see why it's an issue if I just make it private?

I don't think anyone would have an issue with private modification and use, that's what graphics are intended for. However the suggestion that the owner loses the ownership of their graphics is completely wrong, no matter whether they are updated or not.
Not saying they lose ownership - maybe just letting people download the icons and then make a private icon pack out of them would be nice
In terms of saving graphics for private use you can right click and save image. As said above though a person cannot loose ownership of graphics as they are that persons intellectual property. If you do end up saving these graphics for your own use you must not re upload them anywhere without the original creators permission.

You then have to re-upload EVERY SINGLE image to each callout....

You can upload private graphics packs. there is a box to tick to make it public. just leave this unticked
Yes, and you still have to reassign EVERY image which is taking me hours to do

That is the way it is. The same as creating a graphics pack from scratch. Why should someone just be able to claim a graphics pack as their own when they didn’t create it. Under law it would actually be illegal to share someone’s intellectual property without there permission.
By adding an option that allows the copying of an entire graphics pack to your own would raise so many issues with graphics, intellectual property, and graphics ownership. I can just tell you it won’t happen.
I decided i was fed up of having stock mission icons, so downloaded some mission graphics from another pack and spent my whole evening uploading them to a private graphic pack - takes a very long time(but i think it was worth it!)
