At first glance, looking at this on my phone. I thought that was prince with a Star trek Photoshop logo lol

Cant believe my purple psychedelic pimp slap
And I descend from grace, In arms of undertow
I will take my place, In the great below

Ha! I at first thought someone photoshopped a picture of Prince in this, until I actually looked at the face. I highly doubt it's copyright infrigment. Can you copyright a stance?

Time keeps on slipping into the future...

This moment is all there is...

No but there is a ridiculous post on the Org about Star Trek & Prince.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

No, nor can you copyright a movie poster, or even a font or color scheme. What does the OP think this is an infringement on, exactly? There is not one Prince album that this looks like, not one photo from a liner note. It's a retarded notion. Hell, even the Mistral font on Purple Rain was used on albums since the 70s. I got a whole Pinterest page of "Things that Use The Purple Rain font". haha

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

These things are an interesting 'smoke screen' for the Estate while people sell copies of their CDs on eBay. Maybe we should all do this as the Estate doesn't mind at all. But just don't upload a 10 second live clip to YouTube as they will get upset!

OK I'm going to ignore the source of this and actually agree with you. On another note, what copyright does the OP thing exists? So far, they've cowerded out and not said a word.

Sorry, it's the Hodgkin's talking.

I don't know what this Star Trek pic is supposed to look like. But if people can get sued for copying a picture, then the Fab 4 could have made a lot of money from all the folks doing these. lol

There's also this

You can take a black guy to Nashville from right out of the cotton fields with bib overalls, and they will call him R&B. You can take a white guy in a pin-stripe suit who’s never seen a cotton field, and they will call him country. ~ O. B. McClinton
