it's about contacting this particular author

to add: ok let's TRY AGAIN!

ok his hotmail address no longer works...
I wish to contact him /or someone who handles this sort of thing
I wanted to get his permission... it involves copyrights

and nooooooo... I've tried the site... and only got negative results

this sucks really,
I mean COME ON! why should one get permission from the person who does not make herself/himself available to deny or give blessing... and then the author/owner would complain about it...when no one asked him/her for permission!

I'm running across too many like that... *grumble grumble*
bah

OK I don't want to be an a$$, but what is the point of the book forum if we are just going to come to GD and ask the same question http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...les/ponder.gif or make a link to it...

Sorry had to ask....btw I am looking on the net for someway to contact Salvatore

All that I could come up with
R.A.Salvatore

Might be able to find something there

Never try to teach a pig to sing; it wastes your time and it annoys the pig
I've got to admit it's getting better, it's getting better all the time

What copyright permissions are you looking for? Is it for a character, image, title? I don't know much about copyright laws, but I do know that you cannot copyright a book title, nor a character name...so if it is about one of these two there should be no prob with copyright.

no joke... I was slowly getting mad http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/noncgi/smiles/mad.gif and frustrated because...

geez refusals I can handle but no contact info??? that's not
realistic!

why should one get permission from the person who
does not make herself/himself available to deny or give blessing...
and then the author/owner would complain about it...when no one asked
him/her for permission! BUT THERE WAS NO CONTACT to get permission

*rant rant rant* http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/noncgi/smiles/mad.gif http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no.../angryfire.gif

I'm hearing this at Elfwood artists section:
"saw my works at another site" (WELL turn this person in and with
evidence!)
"my work was stolen" (WELL then prove it and get it back!)
"I'm not willing to share my work" (THEN quit whining about it and DON'T talk or tease us about your work!)
and on and on and on....

I'm running across too many like that... *grumble grumble*
bah whiners they give me headaches...

I'm being considerate to ask for permission and this author's/artist's/creator's either not available or not hiring someone to handle this type of situation...


sorry for the rant
sigh http://www.ironworksforum.com/ubb/no...iles/frown.gif
