As many fellow Photoshoppers know it can be a great challenge to take someones head and put it on a different body. As a joke, if one was to do this and the only person that saw the picture was the head shot person are there any legal problems doing this if only that person saw it?

Are you afraid they’ll turn you in to the Photoshop Police?

look up the copyright statutes & rights managagement for your country it will differ from UK to USA

but usually if you are not re-selling or making money from this and it is not for wide public distribution, it isn’t an issue

it is always wise to ask the owner of the original if he/she minds you using it
in some cases not possible
also public domain >people in public as celebrities are not protected from parodies

on flickr there is an option for image owners to select the rights, many of the images are royalty free and some have some rights some grant none

What the fuck does Flickr’s user licensing have to do with anything? Do you ever have a clue what you’re prattling on about or do you have some imaginary posting quota you need to meet no matter how fucking stupid you sound?

It might depend on whether you swiped the photo of the other person or they gave you the head.

You should only do this to friends.
If they are friends, they should be able to see the humor and not take you to court.
But technically, there probably are some legal issues with it. I never cared and had great fun. So had my friends.

I’d like to see what America has to offer, minus the arrogance of some administrations.
Not bringing it to it’s knees. I guess most (non US) people think this way. But declaring yourself ‘leader of the free world’ (Bush senior) is not the way to make yourself popular!
Peace, indeed.

Folks may be interested in the new book called The Dark Side by Jane Mayer. Also, the correct number should be tens of millions (if you go beyond the invading and bombing). And this part Europe shares the same responsibility.

FWIW I figured McCain would be a giant step up from the horrible Bush/Cheney Admin, even with all the pandering he’s had to do to get this far. I think his heart is genuine for the most part. I just don’t think
Obama can pull it off, too much baggage with Rev Wright, Aires and if we are being honest, his race.

BUT McCain picking that Category 5 Moron for a running mate has me scared! That person being 1 step away from the button is very, very worrisome.
