[QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike: [QB] Well, this is like the case of Okuda and his W359 ship photography. The depictions of ships we have from the TMs an the CCG are pretty much public domain because everyone has scanned them. But new, unseen photography is the area of artists copyright. They are preserving the rights and distribution of these images because Okuda wants to publish more books (with his W359 photography), and if the images get out no one will have much reason to buy them. As someone who is an art major I have to say the we are very much in the right by not distributing them. The men are artists and this is their work, and we are priveliged to be first up at seeing it, but they are using their right to their work to make profit off that. At least thats the understanding i gleaned whenever I read Bernd's page and read the multiple warnings about not redistributing Okuda's photography. In the case of Drexler he might not care enough, but I feel it is at least respectful to seek permission. Once we have permission however, I want to photoshop in a star background, adjust the hull colors back towards bluegray and make the nacelles glow! [/QB][/QUOTE]
