Really? Clearly you pass the ball too much. Or I am just a slow learner :-?
I barely pass the ball at all, but I can look at a chart, count squares and remember stuff.

AFAIK he found some agreement with the guy.
And you'd be wrong.
Whether he did or not, it's still available, FYI to the OP.

So.........you think it's ok to rip stuff from the hobby community and market it for a profit without consent?

Basically, I notified Whatball. Whatball and the guy chatted about it. He offered to give a free set to everybody whose art he ripped. Whatball felt that wasn't the point. Personally I felt that he'd ripped so little of my work that I'd go with the majority. And the fact Nick Kelsch who is long gone from the hobby had most work ripped (followed by Whatball) it wasn't really rectifiable.

The fact he felt it was ok to do it in the first place....well you can draw your own conclusions.

I do 'art' (if you want to call it that) for this community and also online car racing community and the approach is totally different. There 'ripping' is a total no no and inhibits creativity. Here, ripping is fine and totally fair play...........if it's for the community and not for commercial gain. Making icons for online clients/FUMBBL, we continually rip from each other to make better icons. As the end product is what counts.....for all the community to enjoy.

No, I'm not advocating anything, nor have I even purchased/tried this particular product. I simply stated that it is something that is commercially available and that it seems to fit the bill of what the OP was asking for (something more portable). That's all.
