Yea I would never do that but many of the people there are computer/security experts so for them its easy to reset their systems if anything should go wrong. 😀 😀 😛

I guess they do know what they are doing 😀 😛

A truely wise policy in my opinion. 😀

People ask why you need so many computers to do art (mailnly my mom 😛 )
and I say well the basic problem is its very difficult to install many different programs on one system and expect it to work flawlessly. Often programs conflict with one another and can cause problems with the registry too. Its best to group systems to specific tasks if possible. 😀 😀 😛

I bet the people who bullied Bill Gates in school regret it now 😀 😛

I am kinda rooting for the bullies right now 😉 Mr Gates is trying to get all artists to register their artwork and wants to use an Senate Bill (Orphan Works Bill) to help him do it. The bill wouldrequire all artists to register their works or risk losing the copyright. This would mean for me I have like some 50,000 pieces of art, textures and 3d objects that I would all have to register. Even if the Gates company only charged me a dollar thats still 30000 dollars I would have to spend to protect stuff that is already now protected the instant I make it. Cloudgazer had a thread on it in the main room. 😀 😛

I had forgotten about that Thanks for the reminder Bunch of crap to pay to register your artwork

😀 😛

You are welcome and thanks.😀 Its a disastrous bill for anyone in the art world. Even if I register all my work and someone in a big company still decides they like and want it they can try to claim my art is orphaned and fight me in court. Of course then I would have to hire attorneys to protect my rights after already spending a ton of money to register it. Basically its just legalized stealing from artist of all walks of life.

Yea I do. What galls me is they try to sell the bill as a way to protect art of dead authors like Escher but in reality its a way to steal art from those of us starting out.

They are relying on apathy in the art community to get away with it.
