And you have the permission from those sites..

Dude, you accomplished exactly what you wanted to accomplish, you got lots of contacts and people now love you.

But you gotta get the permission dude....its as simple as that.

whatever. your dont understand the law. you could very easily have been sued for this application.

Fortunately, webmasters are a different and good breed of people. That of course isnt an excuse for ignoring the law.

But if you want to continue to live your life this way, and this goes for any one of you, you can live however you want....I on the other hand am going to operate within a perspective where i view INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY as the most crucial foundation of this business. This application could very easily have been built to scan and steal pictures, other content, whatever.

And I'm not surprised your ass is unwiped. Don't worry, I know a team of lawyers that will wipe it for you. As long as you give them 60-75% of the cut from this software application.

In fact, I DEMAND A PERCENTAGE OF THE CONTRACTS NEGOTIATED FROM THIS APPLICATION for contributing to the controversy. I believe I own the controversy and that it is in fact MY intellectual property. :thumbsup

Jesus....for what?

For trying to advise someone that they might be subject to legal action?

Kid should be so lucky that he didn't have a nutjob webmaster board owner who wanted to sue him and make his life miserable.

And for all of you who are concerned, why don't you ask LENSMAN his viewpoint on the issue?

As far as I'm concerned, your opinions on this are worthless. Lensman's is the ONLY that matters in this particular matter.

MrPopup is so fucking anal.

>But you gotta get the permission dude

Well, yes that´s always better. I would have asked permission before I promoted to the public :)
But all is well when it ends well.
Don´t you want to make a GNU version, where the source code is free, LOL? I guess not :p !

Congratulations!

In fact....

One of you must know or BE an actual practicing attorney. Why don't you get their opinion.

If I see the opinions from an attorney (someone with Intellectual Law expperience) and they are in total opposition to my viewpoint, I WILL apologize to each an every person in this forum who wants an apology...

and yours of course...

Someone has to be "anal"...

Some people aren't "anal" and it can lead to being in the wrong place at the wrong time...

I'm not upset with being "anal", especially when I know I'm right.

MrPopup,
go and join Acacia or SBC please.

is worthless.

its words on a screen.

but lensman owns this content, so thats why his is the only that matters.

but if you disagree with me, you can contact me through a lawyer.

:winkwink:

Youd like that wouldnt you?

Bottom line, I brought it up, no lawyers were involved. it could have come to that. i dont believe it would have, nor am i crusader for the law, but you have to draw the line somewhere.

If some of you feel the need to call me an asshole. great, more power to you.

I love freedom of speech.

Tell me, is this guy breaking the law?

i really dont give a fuck. I didnt even click the link.

you wasted your time writing that.

:1orglaugh

:glugglug more worthless lines of text please. more!

Aren't you going to email him, and tell him that he's breaking the law? I mean, you're such a nice guy and all. Just wanting to help out. Prevent him getting sued and all that.

Better yet, how about you email Google?

:glugglug

Can I possibly have the sourcecode plz?

I need a similar tool which i plan to build from scratch but i could use yours as a reference.

And here we go.

I wonder if he will release it. If he doesn't, then we know he intends to profit from it, thus it is commercial, thus it is still questionable.

I think if this is such a "free" idea and "we own all our posts" and "blah blah blah" then he will share the source code with all of us so we can all build nice little applications.

His source code is his no matter how much you stomp your feet.

Say he didn't get the permission. Say Lensman sued him.

Are telling me that the source code, which includes a GO FUCK YOURSELF proprietary logo is legally his?

Wrong Wrong Wrong.

Say Mike and lens already gave him to go so whats the deal now?

Broken record.

Youre talking loud, but you saying nothing.

Damn Roger... you never cease to amaze me. Why the fuck didn't I think of this?

Also, I didn't have time to go through the whole thread. Is there a new link posted somewhere to an actual working version of the GFY ticker? Ever since I started working for Lens I don't have time to surf his board anymore and I'm starting to feel out of the loop.

Whatever.

Beating a bunch of dead horses anyway.

As they say in Hollywood....

The End.

I like your edit.

It's only an edit if it says I edited it.

Besides...It's my intellectual property.

edits are fun.

Hmm I bet MrPopup works for Acacia. :1orglaugh

although im sure, editing <i>other</i> peoples posts must be more fun.

Not according to you. It's Lensman's content.

Sponsors have had click/sale tracker apps for years... not many, but I've seen them around. I forgot where the first one I saw was.. but yeah.. fine idea. :)

MrPopup is a troll.

And your mother is a crackwhore.

cool sig :thumbsup

Wait a minute...MY MOTHER IS A CRACKWHORE

How do you know that?

well you see your mom called my mom and then they got together and i walked in and then your dad told my dad that it was time for him to bust a cap in some ass.

without a shadow of doubt.
