Well I guess it was inevitable.
But I think that with this statement from the author people will really appreciate the effort you make when coloring this game, in the time that I have followed you it would not be news to anyone that there have been some "haters" and when you tell them "do it yourself" there if they stay silent, it's really funny.
Keep up the good work, and I really appreciate your answer about "it doesn't bother me."
I already want to see your next update and that of the FFFOX MOD.
I think the problem is that some characters are used to getting everything for free.
For the creator, this game is not something to pass time, it is his source of income, developing it was his job and of course if you work you want remuneration for said work.
On the other hand, for modders their projects (Color, Descensor, FFOX, Translation) are something like a hobby that they do in their free time.
If the creator colored the game it would be an immense amount of work and of course he couldn't give that work for free, it would be something like a paid patch that not everyone would buy because in the end it would be the same game, so it is not profitable at all.
