Great shot, (kid. Don't get c*cky), but please avoid using our official watermarks. I don't want people to think these are official screenshots and I don't want our legal team to get nervous over players making fake official images. You deserve credit for your work, not us, after all.

I'm asking them not to watermark this to look like it's something official produced by EA/DICE/Lucasfilm. I never insulted the art.

No, I'm saying that using official logos on user-generated content is very misleading and, if anything, makes it more likely the creator won't get credited for their art. It would be like making your own video game and then putting the DICE logo at the startup. DICE didn't make that so you shouldn't attribute credit to them for your work. I get it looks cool and official when you do that, but it's misleading. You're reading into what I'm saying very wrongly.

In short, putting official watermarks for three companies on UGC is misleading.

Some of my recent pics have been similar with the BF2 logo but no EA, DICE, etc... logos. Are those still good to go or prefer without the BF2 logo?

The game’s logo is totally fine.
