I'm just not about to *sell* another artist's work. I was referring to scenes that could be used as image maps for 3D objects or backgrounds for composites and the like. Images that can be of further use to the rest of the graphics community to produce more artistic images. If you know anything at all about photography you would know that there are stock houses who sell images for further use by advertising agencies and the like. Some photo houses use some of the sunsets and flowers and other such images as portions of other images and backgrounds/backdrops for thier work.

I certainly will not be obtaining copyrighted electronic nudes. And babe, it's a free world so I will shit on anyone's picnic I darn well please.

Jezz, people are *very* quick to call others names on the net arn't they!?! Here is a person I don't even know and just because he doesn't like my opinion on a matter he has to go and start some sort of personal attack. Personally, I could care less. I just hope that others on the net are mature enough not to begin personal attacks on other netters just because they don't agree with them. > Robert Jude Kudla - Any email sent me becomes my nonexclusive property. -- 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
