View submission: [Developing] Former /r/conspiracy mod /u/Flytape is added as a mod to /r/xkcd. Need I say more?

Do you know if the CSS becomes the intellectual property of Reddit or of the creator? Surely Randall has some sort of say about the use of the xkcd images too? Except that I heard he has some specifically loose copyright.

Not sure, but if I were to guess reddit owns anything presented on the site, including css.

As for copyright, His license allows for anyone to repost it as long as credit is given to him and a link to the source is provided.

This is something /u/yishan and crew will have to hash out. Clearly the owner of the IP is pissed, but I don't see any legal avenue he can pursue.
