yes.

we should make it a point to keep that poster up on top commented posters at all times... each day someone post "This guy is a thief and a hack, do not hire him" in the comments section....

A giant red flag for all visitors to see. Like a head on a stick in front of our castle.

you don't think a client would care about the bad pr that stolen work could bring them?
you don't think that might make them think twice before hiring a poster artist again?

question:
if i hire an artist, and they steal something... but i dont know it.. then the original artist sues... who is responsible in a court of law?


oh and you are still all fuckfaces

[Barry Obama]

make sure you have an indemnification clause in contract with said artiste.

[Barry Obama]

no, i don't think many people care outside of here. (not saying that's right, just saying thats how it is ) any and all exposure is good for paul. it's like people talking shit about fairey lifting images. it's only made him more money, and given him a lot more clients. ...like that anti shepard fairey website, i bet that actually got fairey work.

the hate fest started for paul in the thread he was talking shit about going premium for ten bucks, and how it was a waste of time. it stuck with him.

is there really any bad PR for a band?

if i 'knew' someone that had images stolen by rob jones, would everyone here be as pist off?

[weathermaker]

I am pretty sure that The Books care about whether or not the image they pay for is stolen or not. I'm sure if the other bands were equally aware, they would care too.
