Quote - This was tried before, and every single one of them was deleted because it contained copyrighted material.

The "Fair Use" clause was apparently over ruled when all of them were deleted.

If fair use was not upheld for that idea, chances are better than good that doing so would violate the same policy it did before.

Don't get me wrong, it is a neat idea. But at the same time the site has to protect itself.

Quote - How about a forum collaberative image.  I don't mean we all work on a single image idea, but we have all render out say the 200x200 png of our choice (png for transparent backgroundness).  Then some kind volunteers compile them into a single image. So everyone gets a spot and we end up with a big old collaberative collage image, a real community project :)

Maybe we have a theme and we do one every month or two.

Copyright violation? This doesn't make sense. If everyone is contributing their own work to a group project then there is no copyright violation. You can't violate your own copyright.
