Okay, that's all for now. Need to go play some Witcher for a bit and then maybe some EQ.

Some of these are copyrighted images that have been removed from other web sites for violation of terms, specifically loading screen art from World of Warcraft. Nothing to worry about for personal use but be warned for distribution.

Well the ones I used are from their wallpaper section, so it might be okay for now. Besides, it's not like I'm making any money off it or anything, hehe.

I know you have good intentions but Blizzard-Activision has been going after everyone, even those not within states of applicable law. Since a few of those even had copyright statements printed on the image itself, they definately have indisputable proof for action against the distribution of such.

Yeah, I'm quite sure if Sony still cared; they'd have a field day with you in court. Awesome work.

Sony has never desired to enforce their artwork unless it is taking away from their subscriber count since it is free advertising. Sony is all about the bottom line at the end of the day so skirt chasing with lawyers does nothing but take away from margins.

Blizzard has always been a company of pride so it's a completely different story with their IP. They actively crawl looking for their productions.

They should really go after those people who got Horde tattoos then and skin them.

They love taking care of all their IPs. Plain and simple. :P

Even in the gaming industry, you could imagine the horror stories we had to go through just to get one little teeny tiny minor detail fixed just to print something with their name on it - even though they sent it the way they wanted it. Oh God, George Lucas/LucasArts was even more anal than them, though.

No biggie though. I'll probably just stop using their art alltogether then. It's not even worth the hassle, to be honest.
