[QUOTE="Patrick_S, post: 2503548, member: 17652"] Well, they can throw any fit they want, legally they can´t do anything about it. Fanart falls under the "fair use exemption" in copyright laws. At least it´s presumed to do so. I don´t think a case involving this type of fanart have ever been taken to court. This won´t be a problem with the things i make in any case, i almost never use nude images and the only times i use images from the member area of a site is if a model have hired me to do a wallpaper for them. The credit issue is another thing, i used to always put the website URL on the wallpapers i made but then i found out that lots of sites put their logo on them afterwards anyway. This seriously pissed me off, obviously some people think it´s a good idea to destroy artwork just so they can get some extra promotion for their site so now i rarely bother putting the website URL on them. Maybe people can post a link to the site the images are taken from together with the fanart? [/QUOTE]
