Midnight Lum town tileset-free to use?

BlackM.1 posted a tileset on the old forum called midnight lum town, and there was a sunset variation as well. It is in his public tileset thread, but to use it you had to post a screenshot of you using the tileset to use it in a level. I haven't seen BlackM.1 on this forum, so I can't give him a screenshot, but I really want to make a halloween level with the tileset. can I use it, or not? It seems like a silly restriction to put on a tileset, (no offense) and I recall Nifflas saying that you can't have more restrictions then the ones he set on public tilesets.

BlackM.1 has an account here. You ought to at least try to PM BlackM.1 before using the tileset. But if you get no reply, I don't think there'd be any problem with using it- especially since there's nowhere to post a screenshot of your usage. (Anymore.)

Ok, I sent a PM. I didn't know he had an account here. If I don't get a reply come Saturday, I'll just have to use it because I'm leaving on vacation for a week.

He hasn't been active since May 11th...

This is going to be a risky decision.

What? How could sending BlackM.1 a screenshot be a 'risky decision'?

If you don't get a response from him after a week, please send him another PM telling him that you are using his tileset. If he doesn't want that, that he has to PM you. But give him the chance to say yes/no first.

BlackM.1 only wanted people to give him a screenshot, not to ask him for approval. The issue here wasn't that he isn't around to say yes or no, but that he isn't here to get the screen.
*facepalm. I fail.

Actually, he did have to approve the screenshot as worthy to use his tileset. But he hasn't been active for a long time, and i'm afraid I can't wait a week for a response, I'm leaving tomorrow.

Not to be rude, but your slightly incorrect on the entire subject.

He releases Pond Flowzen and Midnight Lum to everyone. If you wanted to use his special Fertilacious Village tileset, you had to use Pond Flowzen or Midnight Lum and make a screenshot of it.

I remember, mainly because I was the first to receive rights to the Fertilacious tileset.

Oh! So it's a non-issue. Thats great, now I don't have to worry about it.
