It is the artist's work, his name should be where he placed it. Plus someone could find the picture on google images without the artist's signature.

Because no copyright law in the world says to leave a signature where they placed it.

I'm sorry, but that is incorrect.

The one has a line on its edge. Dosn't look the best.

Da flower looks.. REALLY strange, its kinda like a 11 year old drew it, not too professional for our level.

And then the skyscrapers are too real to ever be drawn like an actual seal. Which in turn makes it unrealistic. You have the right idea, just not the right immages.

Wait, flower? And the what has a line on its edge?

Almost none of them are american, or what I so went through, therefor defunct under our law.

Also, cutting/cropping a piece and giving credit, or even posting the sig somewhere else. Still can't find shit in any of these about it. And most even say they aren't even officially legally binding.

I always thought Harvard was an American university? And http://www.bellevuefineart.com is an American website, so it would be including American law.

Anyway, the sever for this website is in Canada, and the owner is in Australia, so American law does not apply to this website.

Holy crap. This just turned into a fuckin' legal argument over a picture.

I don't like the picture that much anyways, kinda too rough for the taste I'm going for. Rember, this is an offical seal, not a 25 year old's drawing.

Also Copyright issues are incredibly finicky, especially on the net, generally there are international agreements protecting registered artwork and you'd be surprised which ones can get pulled in to defend the intellectual rights of the artist.

Da.

Also, Dew.

I saw your idea on the thread.

What is the UL's theroy of the NS world?

To just kinda make things realistic, NS would most likely have to just be physically infinite within its atmosphere; to allow proper space travel and life to sustain, but on the outside, somehow everything is earth-sized. Making new nations easily able to pop out of nowhere.

But tbh, how else can you justify 3,000,000 Russias?

Well, not too worry about that, the UN only asked Max Barry to cease using UN name...probably the artists going to do that first before suing.

Indeed well to add to that there are a few tens of thousand americas and dozens of continents, my empire alone is 36,000,000km2 , though I earned all that through wars and other events ;)

The trick would be to keep the mass of the NS world the same as earth's would assume most of NS worlds volume is air or some low density, in fact if it was made of just air, it would be about 207,000km pole to pole, only 22,000km if it was water.

Dew's lesson: dont think abut NS world too much
