Due to intellectual property law in Canada I believe Team Crotchzombie needs to be very careful concerning the use of original art. Unless the image is currently in the public domain, CZ has to be concerned with potential legal liability. This is why we need to sign a long disclaimer when we choose to upload an private avatar releasing CZ from legal liability and allowing them unlimited usage of the image.

So, wait. Copyright law in Canada is different from the rest of the USA? I blame Canada’s governor, Ted Stevens.

It’s pretty gay that we can’t post pics inline in here.

PS: I cropped and resized these images, which I think makes them OK to use under the principle of fair use. Log in to see images! Marcos El Malo edited this message on 04/12/2008 4:24PM
