[quote name='Ghuxalia' timestamp='1283297461' post='2437554'] Except for the fact that its creator did, in fact, cite the original arteest. [/quote] You mean you didn't create the color red, Ghux?

[quote name='Gairyuki' timestamp='1283295726' post='2437520'] What is this? Plagiarism?! I imagine we can expect a post in which you give credit to each and every photographer that took those photos? Otherwise, it's just a picture with some fancy editing and some nifty effects, isn't it? On a side note, I really like the sig you made using those pictures. On another side note, I must point out that, until you show us the source of those pictures, we cannot know if you indeed are the owner/artist behind those 4 separate stock pictures that I found on Google a second ago. [/quote] If you're trying to insult me by lumping me in with you, well done. Consider my feelings hurt.

[/quote] Hahahaha, pure win. Also you'll be hearing from Campbell's lawyers.

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1283282424' post='2437278'] As Imperial Officer of the People's Sig of the Week, I demand to see the original photo of that woman with the shotgun. I also demand to see every other photo from that set. [/quote] http://img835.imageshack.us/img835/3350/610xpj.jpg

Since my comic book entry a couple weeks ago was disqualified, I'll try taking out two birds with one stone A bit over-sized, but it's not like anyone is actually going to use it anyway...

[quote name='Titus Pullo' timestamp='1283271187' post='2437121'] I'm going to give you the benefit of the doubt and say you posted this in the wrong SotW... [/quote] You can tell by the fact that there's no real concept behind it, just a senseless image with some text thrown over it to give it meaning. I am otherwise loving this thread though, some of this stuff is funny as hell.

[quote name='Jens of the desert' timestamp='1283216585' post='2436365'] Is this a joke? [/quote] No it's serious, you've just been standing on your head this whole time so the blood has rushed to your head and everything looks odd.

[quote name='Schad' timestamp='1283205234' post='2436143'] [img]http://img825.imageshack.us/img825/4578/nixon.jpg[/img] If doodling a campaign button in Paint is plagiarism, I'm starting my own sig contest. [/quote] Beyond awesome.

[quote name='Duncan King' timestamp='1283204172' post='2436123'] How do you define politics and plagirized? [/quote] That depends on your definition of "you" and "define". I approve of this competition and will have an entry soon!

This is the worst idea for a competition ever and most of them are a mess because of it. I can't even tell what's going on in yours, Davian, you chose a poor source to [i]"render"[/i] (aka plagiarize) from this time. Pick a prettier image next time. The rules you keep adding are lame too, I don't know why people bother with this anymore but it's funny to read the comments that result. If anybody else wants to start a fun little weekly thing like this with some better ideas, less silly censorship and without all the weak rules and stuff I'd be willing to participate.

[quote name='Alistair Thorrington' timestamp='1282936737' post='2433005'] Are you threatening Legacy? Because we now have the option to defend them, so you'd better watch yourself. [/quote] [center][img]http://www.danceliquid.com/images/AreYouThreateningMe.jpg[/img] Very perceptive of you![/center]

Can we have just one Legacy announcement without baked goods being discussed? For the love of FSM. o/ Legacy And the Nuts are cool too.

There's a lot of jawing here from both sides, which is totally cool, but I just want to say that the way NSO stood alone and took this on the chin while remaining on its feet is admirable. I didn't care much for NSO before this war but I'd certainly be proud of them if they were our ally. o7 NSO RoK is cool too o/

[quote name='Sal Paradise' timestamp='1282681021' post='2429756'] Well of course not. Cheyenne's a true artist. He doesn't rip off other people's work, smudge it a little and pass it off as his own. [/quote] This.

[quote name='Rebel Virginia' timestamp='1282583347' post='2427866'] [color="#0000FF"]Yes, an "award" that mocks Chey and his accomplishment simply because a few regulars here are upset they didn't win is going to do wonders for the credibility of this contest.[/color] [/quote] I'll be first in line with a submission when you create your own [i]real[/i] CN art competition. Get'r done.

[quote name='Davian Thule' timestamp='1282517299' post='2426971'] Using the Topaz Labs bundle add-on that I acquired legally as well as my CS5. [/quote] Well that was a waste of money.

I know, Rebel Virginia, the title of the competition is misleading because it uses the word art. MS Paint FTW. [quote name='D34th' timestamp='1282361507' post='2425372']...look the Davian Thule signature and ask him for the original image and you will understand that. [/quote] It's the Nightmare on Elmstreet movie poster with some filters and flames added At least he didn't put that gross bubble font with the gradient over the top of it this time. I don't really care for any of this week's entries so I'm voting for D34TH because the one he made last week was awesome... plus he wants to win SOOOOOO bad.

[quote name='Enrigo Donkini' timestamp='1282359281' post='2425314'] Lies. Everyone knows that the ODN is the official holder of the Great Caek Reserves. And yes that is how caek should be spelled. [/quote] Yeah, well you misspelled [i]liez[/i]!

I hear Legacy has cake.

Sarm's gratuitous abuse of baked goods is finally bordering on criminal. o/ Legacy

[quote name='Alfred von Tirpitz' timestamp='1282019744' post='2418785'] Is Nosferatu a myth? What about Nessie? Lycanthropy? WMD in IRAQ? UFOs? [/quote] The female orgasm? Epic God sig is epic.

Nevermind, not worth hating.
