Just to add also even if you are deriving from someone and they make a mistake, we are in charge of our own shops so the mistake will also lay with you if you do not act on the tos.

The whole system needs a shake up, time doing peer review for items to go through as ga, you then go file a ticket for cs to say thank you and they will change the item for no changes being done. I mean what is the point to peer if items are left when flagged. Either imvu need to put in a skin template that covers the mcg as said, devs then can remove and add their own if they want to change to ap. I mean how hard can it be, it has to cut down the work for everyone. Also a skin colour no go for mcg coverage so devs can avoid.

IMVU is god awful when it comes to the rules, that's all there is to it. Sometimes they enforce the rules and sometimes they don't. That's probably a big reason why it's so confusing. You'll see creators making products, then you make the same product and get in trouble for it. It's not your fault.
It also baffles me IMVU allows AP products in the first place when it comes to clothing products and the MCG. IMVU should apply a standard MCG opacity baked into the skin template and if removed the product has to be AP.

Seems like there are a few issues all smudged together here, so...
GA vs AP - as Creators it's on us to understand the difference based on the Virtual Good Policy and Creator Agreement (both linked at the very bottom of this page if you need a refresher, but can be found linked from Studio and Classic). These two are fundamental to creating and need to be understood - IMVU cannot 'help' in this regard because that might mean them making a (contractual) decision about an item that you should be your doing.
Texture Maps - not all products have texture maps even though they may be derivable. If you found an image searching the Internet and use that, you may indeed be getting into trouble with DMCA/Copyright because you're using something the author may not have intended you being able to do (just because it can be found on the Internet doesn't mean it can be used).
Help & Support - it takes time to help others, time that might be otherwise used for creating products, so yes, you may not have been able to get the help you want but don't let that stop you asking as there are still plenty who can assist.

Hey @0XJADEX0! Id love to help figure out a solution here and make sure any files are easily accessible and in an obvious place. I do have a few questions about your specific case so I can better understand the issue.
Do I understand correctly that the file you were missing and struggling to find is the skin texture?
What kind of product are you making? (Skin, Clothing, etc.)
Where did you end up finding the file? Ill check out the website and see if there is a file that needs updating
