Lol I'm a professional freelance artist and that's not how it goes. That's called exploitation: when someone asks you to do something for free, earns a ton of money because of it, and you get a free sample.
Fair would be either the person getting a share of that profit for an X amount of time, or getting a specific amount of money or gratification for the sprite itself.
THAT would be fair, and that's how the industry works.
The screenshot being from PF1 of PFQ doesn't really matter? I did apply to be an artist for the website at one time, and I remember clearly how they would put a "disclaimer" saying ALL of the rights of YOUR art were owned by PF as soon as you posted it - and you wouldn't get anything in return. I've talked to artists and spriters who did stuff for the website, and it looks like nothing has changed.
