..that doesn't make it right..if I was shag I'd have my lawyer send this guy a letter a.s.a.p....it's an obvious infringement of particular paintings of which shag and none other was the originator of....this guy is making a "quick buck" off someone elses sweat , labor and ideas. Apparently you think this is okay, under the flawed logic of "every one is doing it, so what's the big deal" ...here's a concept, how about this guy make an "honest buck" on his own ideas for a change, after all, he claims to have so much artistic background, you would think he might have an original idea rattling around in that pea-brain of his...sure, people copy and borrow all the time, some more blatantly than others, but remember- "just because a million people follow a dumb idea, it's still a dumb idea...a majority does not make it right". When the "rip-off", as in this case is so obviously a knock-off and not a case of borrowing, how can you honestly lump this into the same catagory as grandmas and such painting cute things....c.mon dude, use your head.. |
