There needs to be a reward for the people who's pictures are used...
unless these decals will be given out for free... which I'm guessing not. |

I dont know, I think it would be a GREAT idea to have a tacked picture thread up top where people could post pictures of their ARs. Just a thought.

My vote is for sarcasm.  However, he isn't looking for pictures to just look at and/or steal. He is asking for people to submit pictures to him and give him the rights to the picture.......it's different than the tacked photo thread.

So we use our time to take pictures of our stuff and then give you the picture and rights to said picture for free - and then you make decals with those pics and sell them?
Sweet deal!!!

I realize and understand the difference. I just can’t believe he hasn’t seen that thread yet! And a word on stealing pictures, I’ve had material I posted on this web site stolen twice and used by others for profit, hence the watermarks you will see now on any pics I post here. Just a afterthought for you guys who invest time taking pics of your rifles as a second hobby.

Stock photography is expensive. Since most people are more than willing to post pictures of their ARs, why not try to get people to take them for free (then use for profit)? I'd say if I get free stickers I'll do it, why not? It's just your damn rifle, not your face/likeness or anything.

I think thats what he is trying to avoid by asking here instead of going straight to the picture thread, true he can just IM people from there but maybe he is looking for something a bit different from what is posted there or just more selection to choose from. I dont think he just didnt see the thread there. |

You all are making too much of this, If you are proud of your AR then I would think you would be tickled to get it out there. I'm not looking to STEAL anyones pics or anything like that so I TRULY resent any accusation that I would, If your rifle is picked then you will get a free sticker.
If you aren't interested then dang I'll take this thread down. |

You do realize we are talking about two different members don’t you? I’m referring to Dace not seeing the tacked pic thread, not bigbearhunter. And I can respect bigbearhunters decency for at least asking up front for permission to use the pics and not stealing them. |

bigbearhunter..........
I have a bunch of photos and you are welcome to any/all of them. It isn't like mine are unique or anything - hell, there are only so many configurations for an AR. Plus an AR that is full dressed, would make for a very confusing and un-usable sticker photo - IMO....unless you are doing a photograph sticker. Who would want their gun immortalized in print? sooo.......Just heavily accessorized numbers? |

I don’t think so. Some of us invest a lot of time and effort in our work we post here. Like I said I’ve had material stolen from this site before and nothing burns my ass more than to be surfing Google and suddenly stumble upon a web site posting my material as their own, or people taking my pics from a thread and trying to sell my material on Gunbroker as their own! I’m not accusing you of trying to steal pics, like I said , I give you credit, your at least asking for permission. |

What are you looking for? Carbine, rifle, fully tricked out? Totally stock? Maybe just a balance of both?And what kind of sticker are you thinking of? Picture or cartoon? Let everybody know when you finish them Im sure lots of people on this site would buy a AR decal. Or get one for free with their weapon on it!

tricked out or stock doesn't matter we are looking for a gun that looks good and as you said is balanced. When they are done we will let everyone here know.

I hope you are the legal owner of that picture, because you just gave a company permission to use it.... If your comment was made in jest, you may want to edit it. |

so let me get this straight you want a picture of one of our ar15 so that you can make a profit off of it and in return you are willing to give someone a free sticker, as in one
 i think not. will you only be selling one of these for profit. i got an idea build your own gun and take a picture of it

GOOD GOD ALMIGHTY IT"S A PICTURE!!! FORGET IT THIS ISN"T WORTH THE HASSLE THAY YOU ALL ARE MAKING OF IT. I"LL GO GET A CLIP ART OF AN AR INSTEAD!!
Just thought I'd give someone a chance to show off their rifle. I could have taken and used one of the AR's that I have built but I was just trying to do something for someone else also. |

someone took my "5.56 Inside" and made decals out of it along with 7.62, etc.
when I found out, I confronted him and he sent me about 2 dozen in different colors for free. He was only selling them for $1 at about 20 cents profit each. |

An item is the property of the person who created the image, and there is a 4 prong test called "fair use" IIRC. This most certainly fails that test as 1- you aren't the owner, and are using it to establish gain, and 2- you are passing it off for another party to make profit. I think you may also have a misconception on what copyright actually is..... www.copyright.gov/circs/circ1.html#wwp

The whole point of this thread was a member in search of another member willing to donate a picture of his AR. This picture would be reproduced on decals for profit with no mention of any form of profit for the pictures original owner. The original owner would forfeit all rights to the photo. Not till later in the thread was a free decal offered for use of the picture. One free decal is not enough for me to bite on this one. No, I’m not being greedy but damn if your going to profit from the sale of decals using someone else’s photo then at least offer free decals up front, not simply the satisfaction of knowing that my rifle is forever immortalized on vinyl! Maybe I’m wrong on this one, if I am then I apologize. I’m just a bit sensitive about people using my work for their profit with out my consent or knowledge. Again, I emphasize, I’m not claiming bigbearhunter was attempting to steal someone’s pic, but an up front offer for free decals could have made the deal more enticing from the beginning. |
