Jonbalza,

First of all,
http://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ1.html#wccc

this site clearly states the following
Quote:
The copyright in the work of authorship immediately becomes the property of the author who created the work...In the case of works made for hire, the employer and not the employee is considered to be the author.
Please also note that "works made for hire" is defined as:
Quote:
a contribution to a collective work
So, once more I am the one who bites the bullet.

Also, you may note that these are the US Copyright laws and as such applies to any lawsuit Hasbro would want to put up against me (which by the way would be VERY expensive considering it would have to be a international lawsuit since I live in Canada).

Not to mention, that I did say in the last post that I will NOT be using the name Risk in the final version and also I will be using a slightly different method of play.

Secondly, I care about as much about this as I do about another hole in my head. While I have kindly noted your concerns, if you do not wish to donate anything I must respectfully ask that you not contribute further to these discussions, please know that I am not trying to start up any form of discussion in this thread, I simply need some graphics for my game, and was wondering if the BioRust community would be in any way interested in donating some of their talents and skills.

Once more I do appreciate your time and consideration,
FenixRoA
