Kinda curious if I got the mod authors on my theme right.

Well I got this theme called Blackened on my forums. It was posted by Mick. on the mod site which, keep in mind this was months ago, I found the name Mick. G for him. Somewhere before that, I found a name IDesign360 in the source and that is who I credited it to originally on the header. Then I searched after that and that is when I found Bryan D. posted something related to this and the current credits I have posted on my header now are given to Mick G. and Bryan D.

I don't remember seeing a visible copyright, but just to be safe, I am going to reinstall the theme on my test site and see if there was one. Now my main question is who do I give credits to?

EDIT: Found this out on my test site:


Don't quite remember where I got Bryan D from but I will edit it to be just Mick G. until I get informed on something otherwise.

Bryan took ownership over Mick's themes a while back which is why his name would appear. IDesign360 was the same, originally owned by Mick until Bryan took over.

Bryan might suggest otherwise, but I'd recommend crediting both men.

I saw your name and added it myself later on because I was just confused. I saw three different names and then searching it all up just led to more questions than answers. I was just wondering what you thought I should do in the credits. Should I credit just Mick or credit all three or what?
