Re: Should I make SJ "cards" using 3d or cartoon art, folks? :)

Yeah I wasn't sure about the legal stuff and wouldn't want any problems! Far
as I@m aware, copyright does belong to WOTC unless I made a totally new
ship, but fan art, not for profit is generally left alone as it's counter
productive to go after it (See old TSR and some comic companies getting shot
in the ass by their own zealous legal suits infuriating fans)

And a big reason I'm creating the SJ stuff is to get SJ back in the lime
light, which is good for everyone ;) when I post my stuff on game sites folk
reminisce on playing SJ or want to play it...*cackles madly, rubbing hands
in Oily Villain way* ;)

"if you build it, they will come..." hehe.

Anyone recall who the original artist was who designed the ships I'd like to
put a line on the cards crediting him as original artist, he (or she) really
made SJ what it was because the ship designs are still freakin' fabulous.

I'd be very chuffed if Beyond the Moons hosted the cards! Woot! :)

If ya need I can give you the full artwork in Paint Shop Pro format, or
whatever ye need, if you wish originals (vector work is paint shop, I can
send as Photoshop but vector work would be reduced to normal raster layers).
For printing they really need to be about x3 the size they are currently
(for clarity) but that's easy to do with decent art proggie.

Well Beyond The Moons IS the Official Site, making it the only legal forum
for it. I would say you are golden. I would love to see both styles. Hoping
to begin some 3rd Ed stats as soon as I get finished with a major project
for Planewalker.
