Adult GIFs converted to DCTV that were originally scanned from *copyrighted* magazines running all over the net and for sale on disks. The biggest waste of time and hardware IMHO. I just can't see why anyone would want to even try this or waste any of their time doing this. Why not just spend your time productively by actually producing *original* art on the DCTV rather than converting copyrighted worthless images. If you want to produce something and sell it, why not produce something useful like backgrounds, scenes, still-lifes and the like. How about you go out and take some nice photographs of sunsets and then digitize them into DCTV and sell them. We don't need any more X-rated scans from porno magazines or the centerfold of the month. I'm just so sick and tired of this that it's not even a joke anymore. If anyone wants to jump down my throat because of my opinion, then I suggest you drop me some e-mail and I will discard it as fast as it arrives. -- Bob The Graphics BBS 908/469-0049 "It's better than a sharp stick in the eye!" ============================================================================ InterNet: bobl@graphics.rent.com | Raven Enterprises UUCP: ...rutgers!bobsbox!graphics!bobl | 25 Raven Avenue BitNet: bobl%graphics.rent.com@pucc | Piscataway, NJ 08854 Home #: 908/560-7353 | 908/271-8878
