These people do not value the time spent by others and cannot see the bigger picture what it takes to create an image that is not just simply appealing to the eye.
Actually, people do this freely, not only for commission and numerous other sources that pay definitively for the work and doesn't milk the people for their benefit of sharing the idea, which is no more benefit anymore. Copyrights are not about protecting the author, they are about monopolizing on a work and by and large, this is done by producers who have acquired a serendipitously clever name. The only protections copyright offer is mafia style RICO worthy Monopoly protections which equate copying to stealing.
People cannot see the bigger picture of the logical fail of hoarding over ideas and the detriment that has been beaten to death ever since the first copyright laws to censor authors came about.
Hi @baah, please Google "Statute of Anne". Now, unless you still would like to think that paying the bills with salt is still possible, please re-consider the era you currently live in and come back to earth, with us, preferable by plane and not on a horse.
The creators of their own work now have the choice to waive their rights, to make it available to the public, for free, to make sure that that work doesn't milk the people for their benefit of sharing the idea/concept.
I would like to point out to you that this blog post is about explaining the current state of Copyright, not about the history of it. So I ask you to stay on topic as you are spreading personal confusion about the current laws on Copyright and how we are supposed to work with- and understand that law.
Looking forward to more history tutoring in a blog post that you have created. I would gladly join you there.
Nobody is trying to monopolize art. The typical wish is at least that the art created by them is not used for commercial use without a permission.
Art isn't being monopolized. Anyone can create art if they want without being attacked by artists.
Oh, so you're talking about monopolizing single pieces of art, and not art in general?
Well that's just dumb in a different way.
And what the hell, use of ideas? Are you just ranting random stuff with no point?
I have no say about ideas and "permitting the uses of ideas". If you are talking about the ideas in art, if you see a painting of an eagle with face of an elephant, that's an idea. It's not monopolized as an idea.
You can use the same idea and create art based on the same idea.
If I would create a piece of art and you'd just use my art in attempt to make money for yourself, I would try to stop you with the tools I have. And you of course could go crying "BOO HOO YOU ARE TRYING TO MONOPOLIZE ART".
How many replies are you writing? Going around the same things over and over and over again, still making very little point and not basing the rants in real world and facts.
Your comments seem to be showing off your thoughts unrelated to what I say, assuming I'm thinking different things and trying to battle against those thoughts you think I'm having.
You should really focus better.
Haha.
Are you here just to spew all kinds of gibberish without any contact to the reality?
Sir, are you on drugs or are you this when sober? You are ranting nothing related to the point. You are making no point.
This might seem like I'm "logically inconsistent" but it's difficult to seem logically consistent when you are logically inconsistent. You might think there is a logic, but it sure is special. If it's there.
Wow, so you are actually just stupid. I wasn't talking about complete power.
So you're just talking BS, claiming I'm talking about stuff I'm not talking about and calling me an idiot.
Congratulations on upvoting your own comments while doing so.
You are very special person and I can see that.
Extremely special.
You must feel proud of yourself.
Yes, yes you are.
I never even started to talk about that. You did and you keep on claiming I did.
You're sad. Claiming I'm an idiot won't make me one.
I haven't been even talking about claiming exclusive control about ideas. It's been you all along.
Are your parents closely related or why you have so special way to think?
Still no. You're still talking just dumb shit and as I can see you're upvoting your posts, I'm using my power to flag it because this was special level of stupid.
