You might be on to something there. Where is that Fuckintroll, so we can ask him.

are You an attorney giving legal advice?  i believe you are incorrect as i believe both parties would be liable.

I am studying and I have worked in the printing industry for a number of years where I had to be familiar with copyright law.  If you think I am misinforming people, feel free to look up the laws yourself and correct me.  I'd be happy to apologize if infact I am mistaken.

Rich,
This is serious.  i think it is funny how we trust others and they are totally in the wrong. my concern was blown off

minnetar


Yes, Rich tread lightly here. I am on block, personana non grata so to speak. You don't want to be assumed to be a friend of mine. I am an asshole.
Given that minnetar choses not to be able to read my entire posts, I find it odd she can have any opinion what so ever about anyone's response to me.

      Honestly, Minnetar, given that the state I live in has no provisions for consensual battery or assault with a deadly weapon, if I was going to lose sleep over the possibility of being prosecuted, it wouldn't be for a no-profit copyright infringement.

i appreciate Your opinion.  Why not contact the artist who  You used in the avatar and see if they have given permission for use of it?  Wouldn't that basically solve the issue?

Thanx for that info. Makes alot of sense, since I travel to many a MB and see plenty of avatars that are not originals.

       Yeah.  I may wind up just 'assigning her an avatar' in the near future.

Rich,

i have tons of friends who are professional artists who take exception to the use of their art.  Yes they post it online but that doesn't give us a right to use it.  i believe it is totally unfair for you to feel it is a joke as this is the way they make money and earn a living.  You want to use art then ask them.  my avatar on yahoo was drawn for me individually.

i gave you a simple solution.  Do you know who the artist is that you use for an avatar?  Did you ask them permission to use it on a bdsm forum?  Very simple.

roflmao i read it and clicked on the link.  i approached mod 11 about the illegal use of art.  She never sent me the link or had anything to justify the use  of it.  Yall are intelligent.  You are responsible for what you do not the site.  Based on my confrontation and her response the site doesn't care.  Like i said previously.  There are avatars on here by an artist who requires a license for their use. If they had received permission when i confronted mod 11, wouldn't she have told me so?

If what you say is true, your friend could sue CollarMe.  However, even if I used your friend's work, thinking it belonged to CollarMe, your friend would not win a suit against me.  That simple.  Believe what you want, I have the law on my side .

By the way Rich, think about how many artists want to be associated with a bdsm site and allow the use of their art.
