Which leads me to my original post.

If you think you can make $$ selling your art then you shouldn’t be submitting to a contest where you won’t get paid for it.

Key words are “can” and “sell” there. If one was good enough to make $$ in the market why would they submit it to a contest that doesn’t guarantee money?

Also, you’re assuming the people submitting these must be “professional artists.” I won’t get into the semantics of what professional means, but I highly doubt…

No, you’ve got it right.

The local Perkins/Sit Down family restaurant has a coloring contest for children every month. The winner gets a free Beverage. Does Perkins now have to give away free beverages to all entrants?

No, because even the children know that not everyone wins.

If you don’t want to have your art used without compensation then.....

don’t submit it to the company telling you they might not compensate you for your artwork.

Is this a port of Wii U Smash then?

Hmm so if it doesn’t affect Norman maybe everyone else ages too. Like everyone gets 40 years older. Interesting, probably totally wrong, theory we’ve concocted here.

The Ellie Kiss fried IGN’s circuits because Chik Fil-A is a big sponsor of theirs. Or something.

You know it’s been a rather lame E3 when Star Fox being in Ubisoft’s Space Skylanders might qualify as the biggest surprise.

Yea, and that everyone else would suffer. My hunch is Norman has some special ability to pattern himself on the clone. However, when he dies some cosmic energy gets sucked out of the earth to make another clone baby.

Did you hear them talking about Norman getting eaten and then “coming back.” I’m guessing that baby in the jar is a clone for him or something. Like he dies and then gets transferred to the baby.

I went to Mounds View’s chief rival. So I both hate and love this story.

Yea, I was kind of checked out to be honest. As the Anthem coverage kept going, I grew less and less interested. It looks like Flying Destiny/Vanquish

Cmon. Those 2 “fan” questions were obviously setup. They had the answers teed up.

(If not directly setup tweets by EA plants, they found the 2 questions they were going to answer. I’m thinking it was the former though.)

Now that I look at it I can see what happened. matt saw that one post, zeroed in on the “horseshoe,” and didn’t see the rest of the thread where what I was describing wasn’t the horseshoe he was thinking of. So to me his inquiry was a non sequitur.

TL:DR Kinja commenting is awful.

Right. I’m not saying I’m disagreeing with you. on your assessment(s)

Although Google/Valve/online platforms don’t have the precedents for this set yet.

At least whether they’ll decide to equate them to a platform like your cell phone service provider or a publisher like your Penguin Publishing.

You can’t sue Verizon if…

Thank you for the intelligent response.

????? That comment is purely an opinion on why Steam is doing things according to legal reasons.

Have fun with the people confusing “censor” with “censoring free speech” now starting the only governments can censor argument with you.

I bet Valve is also seeing what’s coming down the pipeline. By policing content, the big “platforms” like Twitter are now changing into publishers. (or at least you can now start arguing this in courts.) PragerU vs. Google’s Judge’s decision alluded to this.

Valve wants no part of the incoming “you published this on…

No, it is sincere. I’m interested in what matt is referring to. I’ve never heard this term. I cannot find much on it through internet searches. It’s hard to keep up with all these new terms being presented and accepted by small niches of the population.
