this came up on one of our pics: where did that link go that lead to the area to order a print, or tshirt, whatever of any picture?

See that was a play on words, because the picture in question was the picture of "Link" we did. And it was a link that was... missing... ok, I'll stop.

Oh also, it's like the missing link between man and apes... I'm sorry.

Which snapshot was that, specifically?

As you may or may not know, it is against our terms of service to depict anything that is trademarked or copyrighted.

We don't delete these artworks outright, but we remove the "Buy this on a T-shirt" link so our partner CafePress (where you can purchase your artwork on T-shirt, mug, mousepad) doesn't get into legal hot waters either.

Try clicking the link on an original artwork. It will still give you a stern warning that the artwork must not contain anything copyrighted or trademarked - not even a small little Pacman character, even if its made out of only 5 tiles.

It's the responsibility of the creator to make sure the creation is not trademarked or copyrighted. Not making sure of that is simply a violation of TheBroth's terms, whether you show the original URL of the artwork you copied or not (sorry Gogo!)
