XboxLegendary 08/12/19 6:04:40 PM #1:	Reminder to all the artists here in CE. Drawing fan art, art using licensed characters, is a federal offense. Just because a lot of people do it does not make it okay. If you are one of these artists. I just hope you have a GOOD lawyer. Have a good day. <cite>XboxLegendary posted [p:925980788] in Fan art is... [t:77934471]...</cite> <quote>Reminder to all the artists here in CE.

XboxLegendary 08/12/19 6:11:57 PM #6:	There was a popular artist on Deviantart who drew "realistic Pokemon" that were extremely detailed. Looked like real life animals. Then he compiled them in a book and sold it on Amazon. He is now facing a 500,000 fine and up to 15 years in a maximum security prison. The lesson?
