What? You can't take someone else's work, manipulate it and call it your own. In other words, you can't go to a website, download a picture from that site, run some Photoshop filters on it and call it your own like this guy did.
Over a million dollars? You don't think that's a bit much?
Obviously, you are not an artist. If you were, you would understand that your art is your property and your income. For someone else to steal it and make money off that stolen image is not different than someone breaking into a warehouse and selling those goods for profit.
It's against the law. And is "something". Something called theft. The difference between that guy and the CD posters is that the CD poster didn't make money off the image. Despite the artist saying his pay was paltry, it still was money paid for an image he STOLE.

the next highest award to AP in a similar case has been $30k. and for the record shep's contribution was considerably more than simply running the original AP photo thru a photoshop filter.
it was an interesting case over the definition of "fair use" ( nothing new in the art world ). unfortunately since the image contained obama i doubt that the CD posters could put their political biases aside to discuss the case.
