I've been waiting anxiously for the episode since I love the show. You made it though, great work! Sent my brother a tip about the show and turned from Windows only to a Linux-geek. Kinda cool, though he already was quite proficient in computers. Just wanted to let you know that what you do is important and that you are helping people to switch.

dude i just listened to the show and i heard about the globe graphic... someone had better make something better. i, like you chess, cant draw to save my life. i know how photoshop and the gimp work but putting that together to make something creative... it just doesnt work. having restrictions for a graphic on a podcast about linux is almost an oxymoron... we need the freedom. haha.

oh and if it was a p.e.b.c.a.k. error then i take back what i said before. haha. just kidding.

Yeah, I know.  That's why I'd like to change it.  Hopefully, someone can come up with something cool.

hehe, note how in the "Delay" announcement I said it was "due to a combination of scheduling conflicts and technical difficulties"?  It wasn't all PEBCAK.  Maybe mostly, though.  Smiley

istockphotos claims you can not use their photo on t-shirts.  However, I believe that they can claim this legally, but cannot actually enforce it.  They can ask you to stop, threaten you, go back in time to call you a cracker, but they can not actually enforce this.

They claim that even if you change the photo substantially, you still can't use it on a t-shirt.  Obviously they do not own all permutations of a graphic image.  I have a friend that is seeking legal advice right now on this very issue.  I will let you know what I hear, if I remember to.  What I have heard so far is that they, istockphoto can charge you for the download of the photo all day, and you can not resell the photo as a photo.  You can use it on a shirt, as an embroidery pattern, etc, but you can not sell the photo as your own photo.
