Does that still work with amazon.co.uk, or only .com?

Just thought of a great bumpersticker for the site. . . .

"I'D RATHER BE ROLEPLAYING"

I could use that just about any time I'm not online. . . . :D

Lunch box would be great, what about cork scews and a Newt bean bag doll? I think the doll might be hard to come by though. Do they have chess sets?

RE: Newt

Newt is a copyrighted character owned by Wizards of the Coast. Can't be reproduced.

HOWEVER

I could do a "generic" fairy dragon and as long as it isn't listed with the name "Newt" there's no copyright infringement.

I know this is off topic, but would Mystra's having Brain Farts be the real explanation behind Wild Magic?

Being a priest that raises the dead, I like that one by Andreas, but I think I'd like the old Monty Python saying, "Bring Out Yer Dead!"

Might have copyright trouble with "Bring out yer dead!" since it's from Monty Python.

ROFL good one Kirkus...

Copyover in three minutes to fix bug with thief class gaining overly-large sums of money from low level mobs

Oh bah, four thieves just made 18,000 platinum. Copyover in 5 seconds.

Oh, and...

I facepalm at you.

Ah, and so would "Never Trust A Dragon" from Shadowrun... I hate copyright laws...

I'll try to frame a polite response to that statement...

Copyright laws are what protects my art. When I put 80-100 hours of work into a piece of art, I %&#@($* want something protecting my rights as an artist.

I hope everyone else here can understand and respect the creative process and just how difficult and disheartening it is to see people stealing your work. To me, it's the equivalent of stealing a piece of my soul.

Copyright laws protect the artist. They are designed to do so with good reason. Believe it or not, lyrics written on the back of a napkin are copyrighted. It may be hard to prove, but registration of intellectual property is NOT required to establish copyright. If you have the SLIGHTEST doubt that ANY material you might use has been created by someone else, give them their due rights and DO NOT use it without their "expressed written permission."

Perhaps I should rephrase that.. I hate the way the copywrite laws are written....I didn't write that to get anyone mad... and I really would hate to see someone STEAL anyones creativity. I could go on a rant about lyrics and the use of them in gaming....or phrases that have become SO used I'd really like to see people trying to enforce the laws... can you imagine Monty Python sueing everyone who's gone around saying 'I want.... a SHRUBBERY!!!" And after seeing my picture on the left over there, I'd hate anyone to steal it from Andreas to use elsewhere...and I thank you for drawing it for me.....I hope this clarifies it a lil bit better..

No, I can't see them suing anyone who said that specific line, but if someone put it on a shirt and started selling it...yes, I could see that.

S' a funny thing...every time I look at Andreas's signature, his eyebrows seem to have tweaked just a little bit lower *sighs for the good old days of jolly paladins* :wink:
