I was thinking about that just a couple of days ago. I can remember it appearing on the Dennis forum many, many moons ago.

EDIT - This was my 5k post.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

this really true? :(

Quote:
If you sold your computer, would you be breaking the law? A federal court in New York says you would be.

It's unbelievable, but trademark and copyright holders really are trying to take away your right to sell things that you own.

If we don't speak out now, we won’t be able to sell almost anything we own -- and if we do, we'll face charges for violating intellectual property law!

First-Sale Doctrine gives us the right to sell most property we own. But if the Supreme Court supports the lower court’s decision, we won't really “own” anything if it's been made in a different country. We expect them to issue a ruling later this year.

If we want to sell products that were made abroad, from Macbooks and iPhones to our clothing and textbooks -- even our homes -- we'll have to ask copyright holders for permission first. And they'll have the right to deny it!

This is bad for so many reasons: It'll undermine Craigslist and Ebay, hurt the environment, increase incentives for manufacturers to make things and move jobs off-shore, and effectively ban the traditional American yard sale.

Friend of mine just compared me to Brian Blessed in a manner suggesting this was a derogatory comment. Well chuffed with that and it makes a nice change to the Boris Johnson comparisons.

A special kind of rabbit? :lol: :lol: :lol:

Depending on how easy/complex it is to do, I'd do some kind of figurine eg horse/dog

Failing that, I'd do my name.

Hmmmm. Free 15 day trial works. Tried to upgrade to the full paid version and it wouldn't work any more. Got a refund.
I'll try it again in a few weeks.
