    They have become the modern day Gene Simmons over such petty non sense

    Quoted from Mr_Tantrum:

    Funny, I had a conversation just a couple of weeks ago with a guy who had a run in with Gene a few years back over something fairly ridiculous - he made an item for a guy with a pic of an owner next to his own KISS pinball machine. Was that you? Hah!

    Quoted from jardine:

    No idea why anyone would pay for this?!?! So many free cards out there, seems silly. My 2c

    So in the first breath it’s ok to get them when they are free but yet still copyrighted.

    Quoted from jardine:

    Guess that's what happens when you try and sell something without the authority of the original Copyright
    Same as making more than one homebrew machine I guess.

    In the second breath it’s not okay with the very same copyrighted images because someone might be making a few cents after the costs of materials and shipping not counting any labor. Ok got it now...

    Quoted from MisterScappy:

    This bums me out.
    When I first tried having custom cards printed, I sent them to Walmart’s photo center. When I came to pick them up, they wouldn’t give them to me without a release form because they had a copyright symbol on them. Funny thing is that CVS’s photo center printed them with no issues, but their quality sucked and they zoomed in on the image. After that, I started printing them myself. There’s another thread here on Pinside where someone was posting custom cards that he created and the OP went silent in that thread. One can only assume that he got a C&D from PPS aa well.
    I hope you can work something out with PPS, maybe producing cards for them?

    There is always that one or two who ruin a good thing for everyone, shame too they really enhance the appearance of the machine.
