Images from a tour you gotta be careful with...if the sponsor doesn't produce their own content they may not be allowed to have the content that's used on their sites used on domains outside of their licensing agreements. Best to check a sponsor's T&C before you do that just in case (most sponsors it's not a problem)

I don't think taking tidbits from a sponsor's site when you're going to be promoting that site will have any negative effects on the sponsor's opinion of you....purposely trying to trump them in the SEs by completely copying their tour is a different ball of wax I would think.

At least that's my opinion

Whoa!

A couple (alright "a few") thoughts and hopefully a helpful link?

Thought ballon one: The irritating thing about forums is that when a thread falls to snappiness its always frustrating that one is generally restricted from exercising quick violence as a way of making a point. |cool|

Thought ballon two: Like that idiot CEO from Sun Micro has repeated many times "privacy is dead" so I think "copyright is in its last throes". As an artist myself, I can wonder if this is truly a bad thing. The issues are too large to go into here. The only thing I do know is that I don't think it can be a good thing to loose all the public domain potential because Mickey Mouse needs to buy crack for another 25 years.

Thought ballon three: Frustrating as it may be, the web was inherently designed to be hackable and while frustrating at times, is also one of its charms.

Helpful link: Chasing down commercial losses due to infringement can be an arduous, frustrating task. Here's a link that can help you:
