flounder's art looks great.
folk who rip other people off are obviously arses.
however i can't see a problem with a guy printing postcards of an image he likes to send his friends if he's not making anything from it.
would be polite to ask though.
artists have traditionally been ripped off becuase we (i earn a living from my art) are not usually business people, we are artists. we should learn to be defensive and protective and guard against this sort of thing.
flounder's idea of putting it in writing on the back of his work is sound.
if folk ask permission to reprint work, are refused and then go ahead, take legal action.
these people are vermin.
