I see that the copyright on Mickey Mouse has been extended.

It's good to see that opportunistic thieves can't legally pirate Mr. Walt Disney's intellectual property so that he is still able to receive the royalties he deserves for his creation.

To be honest with you, I had no idea that I infringed copyrights here. On the hentai boards of which I am a member there are plenty of people doing Disney stuff and most of it is not suitable to show on boards like these.

I'm pretty sure that this funny goodnatured depiction of Mickey as a senior because of his 80'th birthday would bother them less than the R-rated drawings I saw so many others do of Disney characters.

I wasn't ragging on you for that, I was just being sarcastic in general.


It is pretty ludicrous, though, that in 2008 you still need a license to legally draw a picture of that particular mouse in order to protect the rights of a person who died of old age 42 years ago.

Should you really even be admitting you frequent hentai boards?

Why shouldn't I be? I love drawing and I did nude portraits when in college, so drawing hentai basically is a continuation of that.
