Quick ques­tion: Now that I’m put­ting up high-rez ver­sions of my work, is anyone here making use of it? Prin­ting them out, com­pu­ter desk­tops etc.? Just curious.

    Is making a tshirt not a deri­va­tive work, the­re­fore barred by your CC licence?

  2. Tom Hamshere says:

    Most defi­ni­tely. Blue Rage, black white grey 02 and b+w car­lisle make great desk­tops. In fact, they’re pretyt much my favou­ri­tes of all time :)
    I’ve just down­loa­ded blue 6712 to give that a go, too.

    I’m pas­sing them off as my own work, and using the atten­dant borro­wed cha­risma to demand sor­did sexual favours from cute young foun­da­tion year art students.

    i guess you can’t put online big ver­sions of old ones, can you? would love to print out cool sheep picture.

  5. Hugh MacLeod says:

    I don’t mind t-shirts, as long as it stays non-commercial.

  6. Dannie Jost says:

    I have prin­ted a cou­ple out on plain paper, and given them out to friends as gree­ting cards.

  7. Most defi­ni­tely! Please keep up the enligh­te­ning work!

  8. I used one in a pre­sen­ta­tion last night. The one about the CEO who plays soli­taire.
    It hits close to home, unfor­tu­na­tely. My CEO plays Texas Hold-Em online.

    I’ve been prin­ting them out (even before the hi-res ver­sions) and tac­king them up in various loca­tions around the office, where ever they are most appro­priate or will cause the lar­gest commotion.….

    It sure is hard to jug­gle both dating and blog­ging, to be sure

    I will buy Stormhoek as much as I’am able to carry …

    I don’t print them, but I like to view the high-res-versions of your pictures.

    Whe­ne­ver I have the same fee­lings as your ima­ges, I imme­dia­tely post them in my blog of course image lin­ked from and to your ser­ver. Is this legally wrong?

  17. Danesh says:

    I do the same as Balaji above. Please let me know if it is inap­pro­priate and I will remove the ima­ges from my blog.
    Thanks for the won­der­ful car­toons, they do cheer up a dull guy :)

    I had a detail of the swirly black and white 3D squig­gle pain­ting as my desk­top for a week. The edi­tor of a style mag where I was free­lan­cing asked about it.

    His Hugh­ness:
    I used your “glo­bal mic­ro­brand” graphic in the top story on the Mar­ke­ting­Profs blog yes­ter­day:
    http://blog.marketingprofs.com/2006/04/global_microbrands_and_the_per.html
    …with cre­dit in full color, of course.

    I’ve been saving the low res ver­sions for as long as I’ve been reading

  21. Frank says:

    Hugh,
    Funny stuff. How about a ver­sion with one of these alter­nate res­pon­ses:
    Yes, but I am married to the blo­gosphere!
    OR
    Yes, but I am having an affair with the blogosphere!

  22. Stace says:

    Blue 6712 just became my desk­top — I had no idea the oil-type tex­ture detail was in there until I clic­ked to the hi-res. Nice work.

  23. Todd W. says:

    Desk­tops? Oooh, didn’t think of that! At work, we’re get­ting bom­bar­ded with “Be the Brand” mes­sa­ges. Wouldn’t you know it, the day after a co-worker went off on a sar­cas­tic riff about “Being the Brand”, Living the Brand sho­wed up. Just gotta love serendipity…

  24. I prin­ted the living the brand one out last week :)
    (before hi res, I’m soo old skool).

  25. Ric says:

    I would pro­bably make use of some of theol­der ones — I was actually loo­king for­ward to the next t-shirt release! Any chance of some of the old favou­ri­tes in high-res?
    I would pro­bably get them onto t-shirts, but some of them I have used as email sig­na­tu­res when the audience is appropriate

  26. I upload them to Flickr, then once I pos­ted my favo­ri­tes to my blog with a link back to you.  You lin­ked to it and it brought me lots of traf­fic.
    I do not print them or make any money from your work, or mine for that mat­ter. Damn, I hate when that hap­pens!

    I shall defi­ni­tely be prin­ting this one, will get it fra­med and hang it in my office. My hus­band says I am a blog bore, but I am totally absor­bed by it while he pre­fers Ebay. Such is life!!

  28. Ellee says:

    I have published this on my blog today, but women can equally be addic­ted, I am.

    I’m prin­ting out a bunch to give away at Bar­camp Ban­ga­lore next week. The shop’s prin­ter can’t do sma­ller than A3, but they’ll print me a sheet for Rs 25 (USD ~0.5).
