We need a picture of Mickey Mouse caught in a mouse trap - catching him by the tail just as we're catching Disney for their "tale".

1. Someone's already been posting a similar graphic on DU...
...but good luck finding it. It's Mickey Mouse in a mousetrap...don;t remember all of the specifics because I gave it a quick glance as I was leaving the thread.

Maybe someone else will read this and remember the pic I'm talking about, and can direct you to it.

:patriot:

8. A picture of Mickey Mouse morphed into Pinnochio might be
more appropriate.

Mickey caught by the neck in a trap..

I created this one, but it's not what you want, sort of appropriate for this film and Busholini's.. :)

Got to be careful, between McDonalds and Disney they have teams of Roving lawyers looking for anyone messing with their branding graphically, there's an old saying in the graphics field, "DON'T F*CK with THE MOUSE!" ..

13. They've handed us their @sses on a silver platter. It's a perfect
venue with many, many images we can muster. They've made a horrible booboo.

:wow:

20. I like the trap.
Edited on Sat Sep-09-06 04:21 PM by Cobalt-60
But I wouldn't use the whole mouse, just that white gloved, three fingered hand trapped under or amputated by the bar with an envelope of freeper cash as bait.
I'd do it myself, but I'm at what has come to pass for work.

23. The is no harm in the opening moves. We were almost sued
by Godzilla's lawyer because the press nicked Doug, "Dougzilla" and I put up a bunch of cartoons with a "dougzilla" figure. It was sort of hilarious, getting served by Godzilla!

But, the lawyer wanted to make some $ by serving me and I'm sure she did. We had an extended conversation in which I got to explain the history of finned monsters and she went away.

If we're careful, it won't be a problem. Of course, most of my family makes their living from the fine arts and we try to be as careful of the work of others as we are of our own.

But, in these cases, there is plenty of warning before there are real consequences.

42. Some rats live by different standards in this world
Mickey Rat would have no problem rubbing out a damn Disney icon if it helped rein in the corporate powers unleashed in this nation. In fact his creator, Robert Armstrong, is one of the few people to dance close to the copyright infringment thingy and never get stung. Mickey Rat lives for danger. Hey, it's a dog eat dog world, and beer is in the food pyramid, somewhere, right?

44. I like the fact that you actually made it - not made from a Disney mouse
if you know what I mean. :) It's a great graphic - just tried it on the layout and it looks good!

35. This is good
I would , however , try it with the, shall we say, more hostile expressions.
I know they're out there for Cheney and Chimpy. Perhaps theres an unflattering shot of Rice as well.
