It is copyrighted, but we would allow use depending on the context. We wouldn't want a product range other than that which we already offer (polo shirts and mugs, with more items shceduled) as it helps fund the web site. What are you thinking of?

Title: Re: Its just getting worse and worse . . . Post by: zorro on March 27, 2009, 07:29:34 PM neil if that graffiti artist is Banksy we might just have the richest detecting site on the net!
Title: Re: Its just getting worse and worse . . . Post by: Neil on March 27, 2009, 07:40:56 PM Not a Banksy sorry Zorro, but he is found in Cardiff (hes from Bristol) there are two of his rats in Cathays. A friend of a friend claims to know him. I wonder if we could get him to do a detecting piece other than the minesweeper hes already done! Food for thought my friend,
Title: Re: Its just getting worse and worse . . . Post by: zorro on March 27, 2009, 07:48:01 PM personally neil i think banksy is a genius. theres always a deeper message to his pieces and to think the Tate paid some gezzer thousands for a pile of bricks is crazy. i didnt know Banksy was from bristol, where are the Banksy pieces in cathays? are they on the net??

Post by: Neil on March 27, 2009, 07:58:39 PM Already available Paul - ask Geoff (Admin) for some.
Zorro one is on City road and the other I think near Crwys Road - I have a photo somewhere. Its the stenciled rats from his early days. I'll try and find them. In a hundred years time he will be considered as Dali or Picasso, or Mondrian is now - a modern leader of art in every sense of the word. Couldn't agree more with you regarding the Tate Modern - I was there 6 months ago and in fairness its a joke what they display and the prices they pay! Considering what they will pay for a Damian Hirst its beyone a joke! Neil Title: Re: Its just getting worse and worse . . . Post by: waltonbasinman on March 27, 2009, 08:04:16 PM thanks Neil. :)
Title: Re: Its just getting worse and worse . . . Post by: Neil on March 27, 2009, 08:14:41 PM A few more of my favourites for you Zorro!

http://www.banksy.co.uk/outdoors/horizontal_1.htm (http://www.banksy.co.uk/outdoors/horizontal_1.htm) i like the protester throwing a flower in a bottle instead of a Molatov cocktail. the people running the Tate remind me of the people who saw the emperor in beatiful new robes instead of him bo**ock naked. the inference that anyone who doesnt see it as art doesnt know what art is ridiculous. long live the banksy's of the world Title: Re: Its just getting worse and worse . . .
