I just realised, thanks to a quick link in the forums, that [http://flickr.com/photos/jawboneradio/469433547/sizes/o/ Len's image] is copyrighted, ''not'' CC-licensed. And Flickr definitely gives a CC licensing option. The way I see it, we have several options:
 +
# Get permission from Len to use the image in this manner
 +
# Claim fair use of the image, used in a low resolution for illustration purposes only
 +
# Scrap the image and find another suitable image

I somewhat doubt that Len would have any objections to the image being used, but I want to play by the rules. I think option 2 is easiest, personally. --[[User:Agent Lex|Lex]] <small>([[User talk:Agent Lex|talk]] - [[Special:Contributions/Agent Lex|contribs]])</small> 18:40, 1 May 2008 (EDT)

This song is clearly inspired by a very similar sounding song, but I can't remember what it is. Can someone please suggest what it might be a spoof on?

Sing A Longs? Really? I haven't been to a concert yet, but I see no indication of audience participation during FoM on any of the YouTube videos? Is there a part that the audience consistently sings along with? Also, if we do keep it, please remember that when you add a song to a theme, it needs to be added to the list; it isn't a Category, it doesn't happen automatically. --MitchO 21:21, 30 April 2008 (EDT)

Len image[edit]

I just realised, thanks to a quick link in the forums, that Len's image is copyrighted, not CC-licensed. And Flickr definitely gives a CC licensing option. The way I see it, we have several options:

  1. Get permission from Len to use the image in this manner
  2. Claim fair use of the image, used in a low resolution for illustration purposes only
  3. Scrap the image and find another suitable image

I somewhat doubt that Len would have any objections to the image being used, but I want to play by the rules. I think option 2 is easiest, personally. --Lex (talk - contribs) 18:40, 1 May 2008 (EDT)

This song is clearly inspired by a very similar sounding song, but I can't remember what it is. Can someone please suggest what it might be a spoof on?
