# Babar Luck Vector Paint
I'm loving playing with different art styles
now ... this is 100% vector but done with
brushes made of shapes that have 50% transparency so they kinda blend.



CFB

And here's the wireframe (pretty simple really)....

Slight TJ: This place: www.roflemo.com/ appears to be 90% stuff nicked from b3ta.

Looks fine to me.

# I don't have a problem at all
I'm pretty rubbish at PS and doubt that anyone is going to nick my stuff. I am interested to know how this differs from Zoo/Nuts nicking things as the site clearly aims to make money and, obviously, has not asked permission.

# Probably just scale.
Also, the site isn't charging money to look at the content.

# Yes, but it's free to look at,
where as the magazines are directly charging people to look at [your/someone's] work.
I'd say that was the major difference, which is what the question was.

I'm not saying neither of them are arses.

# They'll still be earning money thanks to other peoples images.
I don't know how much money, and this issue doesn't really affect me as I'm too shit to have my work stolen.

# Fair enough.
As I said, I'm not worried about it - it just seems a bit cheeky to me.

# Oh, it is. But you can see it as free advertising or theft.
It all gets a bit blurry though. B3ta's front page has adverts on it, and I would guess is viewed buy people who don't visit the board. Is that different to that site? There's even an Email This To A Friend option.
At what point does a posted image go outside the remit of the poster?

# Yes, but we post things on this board,
I suppose with the implicit permission that they can be used on the front page if deemed worthy.
If we have nothing to do with another site, they don't have the right to make money from our work.

# Well, if you want to stir..
Yes, it is different. I don't see a problem with adverts (well, I don't like them but, you know). B3ta is offering original work produced by people who know what the score is when they post.

The emo site is offering stolen work to achieve an income. I think there is a big difference in principle but, as you say, the scale is small in this case.

The bottom one looks like a Kevorkian Solution album cover.

# Nice!
How do you work? Do you use a graphics tablet?
If so, can you recommend a good one? I'm thinking of investing, but it needs to be pretty damn good, as I'll be using it for professional illustration. Any one?
Again, I like this!
