@KateyKhaos if someone offered a full VU, would you use it?

Lets say that someone has contacted Riot and is offering what they made. They have made a full VU for a champion, let's say Fiddlesticks. Take it as the best case scenario, the splash art is complete, the ingame model is great with little to no bugs, the animations are fluid, and the spell effects are even there. Everything is there for a VU except possibly a voice over or lore update and it is all able to be edited or changed. The whole shebang.

The deal is that the person would give Riot all of the files and work they had done, and allow Riot full rights to change, alter, or use any part of it, with the one condition that the person would get a small recognition (maybe in patch notes, the wiki, but not anything major or in game).

Would you take the deal? If the community did all the work for you, and everyone loved the work, would you guys step to that level of communication to work with us?

People are passionate about this game, and many of them already spend most of their lives devoted to it. So many of us have the capability to make content on the same level you guys can, and we to help. People would willingly do the work for VU's, but we never get the chance because the boards is the only way to communicate well.

I feel like Riot should take advantage of the Polycount Community.

For those of you not familiar, Polycount is a forum that hosts a competition every year, where people make item sets (For Dota 2 and TF2) and if they win, those sets get added to the game. A few years ago, League was also added into the mix of games you could make things for, (Champion models, splash arts, skins, etc.) However, the prize was only RP.

I feel like the amount of dedication and work that the Polycount community puts into their work should be better recognized and many of those skins being used.

They'd have to sign a ton of contracts to give full rights of their work to Riot.
