Actually, Zimmerman is going to get hammered.

Shutterstock images, if purchased, can be used for any commercial application that does not involve resale of the image, and specifically prohibits creating a derivative in the form of a painting that Zimmerman did.

I have tracked down the real artist, and have sent him an email. While I sympathize with Zimmerman to a point, I don't condone theft. By the way, when I purchase and use stock photos in my own derivatives, it is covered under "fair use" since I'm not profiting directly, nor are the websites profiting, and Shutterstock specifically allows it.

The artist comes from Awen Art Studio, located in Europe.

Incidentally, Zimmerman can NOT go after SKP_NYC, but Awen can if they want, though I doubt that the amount of money would be worth it.

So Skippy takes a picture of Zimmerman holding up his "painting," Skippy writes his own name on the painting, and puts it on ebay.

OK. Whatever.

64. I need for them to Goggle search for the artist's name.

Jerry the Tapir has something for them...

Come to think of it, unions do create jobs. Companies have to hire two workers to do the work of one.

Actually I did get the point, I didn't at first since I don't "stalk" Zimmerman like you DUmmies do, but I did a little research and figured out the gag.
I may not lock my doors while sitting at a red light and a black man is near, but I sure as hell grab on tight to my wallet when any democrats are close by.

I dont think any of us missed the point of the thread and the auction.

Skippy-

You attempted to create a piece to satire Zimmerman's painted version of a stock photo he is selling, by reproducing his auction description nearly word for word. You then listed the artist as Jerry The Tapir, We are aware of the video you posted on DU sometime last year.

What you dont seem to get is you have put yourself in harm's way by also creating a derivative work based on a copyrighted stock photo, The terms of which strictly forbid the image being manipulated or reproduced in any way for profit.

You also took a photo of Zimmerman himself without permission, while plagiarizing his auction description. In other words, you are also selling a derivative work of Zimmerman's for profit. - Even though you claim you are going to donate the proceeds to charity, Clinton's DMCA still forbids it , assuming the copyright holder's express interest in enforcing their rights.

Check the details with a couple of DU's ninja lawyers if you don't believe me.   

Zimmerman = Idiot.
You = Bigger idiot.
