  • Chris Escobedo, owner of Elite Tattoo, claims that the lion tattooed on welterweight fighter Carlos Condit's side was an original creation.
  • "I would not have agreed to the recreation of the tattoo by an animator,"
  • According to Escobedo's lawyer, tattoo artists have full rights to their work, unless a written contract specifies otherwise.

  • The Hangover 2 featured Mike Tyson's facial tattoo on one of the movie's main characters, sparking a lawsuit from the tattoo artist responsible. Although the case was settled for an undisclosed amount, A California District Court judge suggested that a win was likely.

    This article discusses the qualms of art ownership and license agreements. After a tattoo has been applied onto a person, who retains that tattoo's ownership? One would argue that the tattoo belongs to the wearer, but it would seem that might not be the case. In fact, having the rights to feature the likeness of a person is no longer enough if that person has a tattoo. That person's body being considered a canvas of sorts and therefore allowing the tattoo artists to retain their creative rights.

      People can simply click on any of the rotating images and videos of the author's work will show up. It's an interesting way of allowing people to get to know the artist. It's different than youtube where people just look up videos and watch them

      Blogs aren't too interesting to read without pictures in between to keep them attracted
  • Nothing makes a blog post more eye-catching than a great header image, but not all publishers have artistic talent. And even accomplished digital creatives often crave some found material to start from or work with in a project. Luckily for all of the above, sources abound for finding a compelling photo to grab your readers' eyes and draw them in, or to locate fresh multimedia to remix.

Aywas virtual pet sites art participation forums userbase

    Let's just reveal everything about my regular online life, lol. I play a lot of 'virtual pet' sites, where you collect little creatures, but Aywas is one that stands out a lot. In the spirit of participatory media, it's a very different kind of participation from the usual kind of pet site. Aywas encourages users to create their own pets by colouring them in with sophisticated art programs (such as Photoshop) and submitting them. In turn, these pets are then eligible to be 'bred' with pets other users have made, and a site artist will mix and match the designs on both parent pets to create a new one. It's a very interesting concept and heavily user dependent for participation. If you're interested, shoot me a message at user ID #6429 and I can get you started!
