Thanks Soulhuntre. Long time no see. Let's talk soon (off the forum, of course.) Let me try my hand at this, then, I'm going to go on to something a bit more constructive. If I built a plane that looked like a Boeing 737, would that be a problem? My brother is a cartoonist, and several years ago he designed a character he made up called a Freebley. It was a cross between an insect and a fairy, but what it resembled more than anything was my stuffed Bullwinkle I used to lug around (EVERYWHERE) when I was a kid. He also has Murray who is a little cricket character he created years ago based on one of our favorite (as far as CUTE goes) cartoon characters growing up, Gimini Cricket. And while I'm more than certain Gimini Cricket is trademarked, Steve's cricket looks nothing like him, but then again, he IS a cricket. So you see, every creation an artist transfers from his mind to the media he works in, is a culmination of things. Like a spaceship is a spaceship. We've been told that our Sc1 resembles the shuttlecraft from Alien. And while that very well may be in some respects, Tom did not use pictures or reference images of that craft to build the Sc1 model. So if some of the features resemble features from something else, be it conscious or unconscious, it is because this item helped to inspire the thing. So let me ask you this, what about a Boeing Jet? How many models of that are out there in the market? OR a Ford Mustang, etc., etc., etc. What are the rules on this? You might say, Yes, but this is a TV Series with a Unique Original Design. But then so were all of these items at one time or another. So where is the line drawn? Should we switch to making clothes for Victoria? And if so, what if we come up with a shirt design that looks similar to something someone created here a recently or two years ago that we'd never seen, but our shirt is similar enough that we are then accused of ripping this persons design off? It's a shirt, and shirts look like shirts and if you were to break this down, I believe more often than not, every shirt out there that has been created by all the artists who have created shirts for Poser, would have more similarities than differences, if you want to look at it that way. What if we built something like a lace up sandal? Now there are already lace up sandals out there, and while they may have similarities, the one we made has a completely different pattern, laces, and sandal foot design, what then? Do you see my point here, Blue Pixel? Would you like to continue being riled up (because this is your favorite show) or can we move on? I am a person who prefers conflicts be resolved. So, rather than continuing on the forum with more accusations, speculations, or ill will or feelings, let's try to resolve the matter, please. You tell me what you would like us to do? Would you like us to pull the model? Would that do it for you, if we just eliminate the problem? And I do not mean this as a sarcasm. I say this in all sincerity Because I dont know about you, but I'd like to get on with more constructive things on this beautiful Saturday afternoon. Besides, its Valentine's Day and I have a Newsletter to get out with download information for a new Freebie. I think people might want to know about that, more than they'd like to beat this poor horse (FA40 topic ;) to death/any further. What do you say? Please let me know. Cheers! Pam
