Response to Original message |
| 116. Wow. I don't know of the rights issues that might or might not be at hand on this, |
|
but this is something that people would willingly pay for. If such funds went to the King Foundation or a charity in need, it might be worth looking into.
Great image - worth being used for some greater good if that's possible. There are tons of ways to contribute, volunteer and give - including using proceeds of awesome creative skill and talent. It doesn't always take the form of soup kitchens or blood donations - there are so many ways to give and I'd love to see something more come out of this (if legally feasible and reasonable - given any possible restriction snags if there are any).
Just a thought...
Awesome job - thanks for sharing it freely nonetheless...
