Thought of the day
A. R. Mani. Giorgio really has had his share of bad luck with domain names, didn’t he?

Midsommar. Today Sweden stops. Well, almost.
Supermarkets don't until three p.m, but we do.
I found out my domain name case. I started from the famous (at least in Italy) Timbrificio Armani v. Giorgio Armani, and ended up with the UDRP procedure between G.A. Modefine S.A. (that's Giorgio, again) and A. R. Mani.

Nice read, nice conclusions. Which conclusions? Didn't I say it's Midsommar somewhere up above?
Put away that mouse and go frolic in the fields. Now.

It is not doujinshi if it is just a copy; the artist must make a contribution to the art he copies, by transforming it either subtly or significantly. A doujinshi comic can thus take a mainstream comic and develop it differently — with a different story line. Or the comic can keep the character in character but change its look slightly. There is no formula for what makes the doujinshi sufficiently "different" But they must be different if they are to be considered true doujinshi.
