So, you still haven't answered my question. You say that you 'like to mix your work with the work of others'.

What exactly do you mean, are you copying pieces from other peoples images and using them in yours?

The size of a cube is given in ST: 28 cubic kilometers. So, grab your math device, type in 28, and do a third root, and one finds something on the order of 3.04... kilometers.

I’m very open to advise but once I gave you my reason for doing what I did you should’ve understood and let it go. I stated my reason a number of ways but you just don’t get it so let me try again. We’ve seen many Borg vessels such as standard cubes, class-4 tactical cubes, many types of spheres, probes and the queen’s yacht. When you hear words like “standard” and “class-4” it should be obvious that there are many other types we have not seen yet that come in many sizes. I’m open to advise to make the graphic quality of my art better but you cannot tell me how to use my imagination. That is something nobody can control. If your imagination is limited, I’m sorry for you.

Andrew, Yes, I combine the work of others with my own. I’m very new at rendering ships. So far I’ve only done Borg ships. Being that making them is just a matter of forming geometric shapes, texturing and shading them I figured it would be a simple way to start and I’m getting better. Everything that makes up the space scenes such as planets, nebula, space and things like that are purely me.

Yeah, see the problem is that essentially what you've done is stolen elements from other peoples work without asking for permission.

Let's say I spend my time creating an image of Alain Rivard's Enterprise model, then you take the image copy the enterprise and paste it into your picture. That's breaching intellectual property.

I have closed the thread untill further notice. Please feel free to contact me or any staff on the matter.

Seraph, i will contact you shortly on whats going on.

**Coolhand** · 03-20-2007, 10:40 PM

indeed, you can't just go around nabbing bits of peoples renders and bash them together into your 'artwork'. Have you actually done any 3D work in this image at all?

Thread locked while the staff investigates.
