Discussion from VFP (on unoriginality)

Although I havn't found the image anywhere else, the name is stolen from here. Not that anyone cares about that. --The Zombiebaron 01:34, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Seems like it's a pretty common pun, actually: [1] (though a good number of those are references to the blog you linked). —rc (t) 01:55, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Comment Zombiebaron, thanks for listing the blog. I've looked it over and can't say that I learned anything; its been a good day. But to accuse me of "theft" is unfair. Dame GUN PotY WotM 2xPotM 17xVFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 18:41, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

Okay, so maybe none of this is stolen, unless you wanna count the name, and maybe it can just be counted as a case of "There is nothing new under the sun." --The Zombiebaron 00:19, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

CommentI've moved this discussion to the images talk page, where it belongs. Dame GUN PotY WotM 2xPotM 17xVFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 13:44, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Research

Found a blogspot with the name Splenda in the Grass, but couldn't find an online image of it, so bad pun and all, I believe that this is as original as it gets in "concept" and original image taken by little old me. Dame GUN PotY WotM 2xPotM 17xVFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 15:40, 2 July 2006 (UTC)

Oh my god, you mean to say you took this with a camera? Pending a responce, I will retract all claims of unoriginality. However, maybe next time it would be a good idea to vocalize such a fact? --The Zombiebaron 15:08, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes I took this with a camera. ;-) On your talk page I labored to tell you that finding a patch of green grass in our subdivision, on one of the hottest and most humid days so far this summer, and several months pregnant. I guess I really do suffer for my art. ;-) Next time, I'll get buddy to take a picture of me taking the picture ;-) Hugs, Dame GUN PotY WotM 2xPotM 17xVFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 16:38, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

PPSS Maybe the image tag is what threw you. I never know which of the GDFL's to put on original images. I put the copyright violation on it because the name Splenda is a registered trademark. Dame GUN PotY WotM 2xPotM 17xVFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 16:41, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, that was the problem it seems. Next time maybe use the "copyrighy of uploader and realesed into the public domain" one. Oh,and I'll apologize here too. --The Zombiebaron 17:40, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Stop it! You're making me feel guilty. I love it but all I can offer in return is my friendship, or I could name the baby after you, but I don't think that Buddy would go for little Zombie. He's a vet, not Frank Zappa. Dame GUN PotY WotM 2xPotM 17xVFH VFP Poo PMS •YAP• 22:32, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
