Be sure to keep us updated in your fight against Cafe Press.

It's tough! But, thank you for asking. This is a very serious case the deeper we get in. We got a new, better experienced, I.P. Person. Well, things are rocky, like I said. Cafe Press has hundreds of millions of dollars to fight me, and they are now fighting for their life - to show the federal government how their business plan zig-zags around the copy right laws will make them have to change their business plan and work legally with artists like every other business. So they are not going to let that happen. They have a river of money coming in, and are not about to let it be damned up! Our new I.P. Lawyer. Cathryn, told us today how mad she was getting the more she found out about our case, and what CAFE PRESS is doing. When she found out Cafe Press has plans to print out "users" ART on canvas and have it gallery-wrapped and then sell it on line! That is really scary. Total stealing of art, no copy right check (by the way the piece they stole from me WAS ACTUALLY COPYRIGHTED!) and Cafe Press is gonna start printing on canvas making fine art giclee, just like the ones you see in galleries, maybe with-out the same quality, or regard to the Signed and numbered editions Any artist is putting out of their work! - that's a total nightmare!

I think that should be frightening news to any, and every, artist!
