BANG BANG BANG!

Order....Please be seated.

Skateboard.com.au Case number 00000002.

BETWEEN,
Plaintiff, Roger skateboards vs The defendant, Simply skateboards.

Nature of Complaint: Simply skateboards "blatantly" ripping off Roger Graphics.


VERDICT: The evidence that has been put forward to the court through this thread and the charlie thread clearly shows that Simply Skateboards blatantly ripped off Roger skateboards graphics/image. The similarities are too close to pass off as "inspiration" and is 'simply' (pun intented) a copyright infringement.

The court will be open to appeal untill 14:00 EST 22/7/2010

Hi Simply Skateboarding

Thanks for responding. Who wrote the above? Was it the artist? I'm still a little confused because someone who I thought was part of the company wrote this in the charlie forum.

"Thought I may lay my two bobs worth in! Yes the graphics on the new board may look a little Sieben or what ever, but who really cares"

That comment didn't sound to me at all that the company was promoting this as a homage at all. Quite the opposite.

Thanks for joining us Mr Simply.

Just to clear the air. Are you Mr Fe? What was your role in this series of boards?
SSimply Skateboarding22 July 2010
sorry... I am not Fe, merely his tool for uploading to forums.. I can put in your requests for further comment to Fe, when he arrives home from international jetsetting...
regards, Ms Simply

people do it all the time, literally every second of every day.
However, if anyone, ever were to disagree with the words "blatant ripoff" being used when referring to these "artworks" they would be wrong.

Had a read of that forum and they didnt seem to be denying that they look similar to Mikes work at all, (And thats good because they do look similar) have a look at this link look at the post on 16th of July

"and Drew it does sound like he wants to smash you! "

I take back everything I said. I apologise to Simply Skateboarding. My comments are in no way representative of skateboard.com.au's position on this matter. I now find the graphics 100% legit and would like to purchase at the aforementioned recommended retail price.

hahah drew you are a funny C#*t with big boobs!

The "Making waves in yo bathtub" would have been way funnier if it said "Making bubbles in yo bathtub", with some bubbles floating up and bursting in the graphic.
BBarry Morgan16 Aug 2010
would would have been better is if they had a picture of astro boy right in the middle of the board, but really small so you could hardly see it.. that would have been cool
