I did not say anything about fine art prints. Commercial use is not fine art use. However selling hundreds of copies printed on your trusty Epson probably is commercial use; and I am pretty dam sure selling thousands of litho prints is no matter how artsy the image is. You keep putting specific stuff in when it is pretty clear I am talking generalities.
You read something that is not in anyway definitive and think you know all about that particular case. I would think, myself, that a university's attorneys would be better than average and might just know what they are doing. I am not qualified to make a legal decision on a case I have not read, wouldn't be even if I was a lawyer. Not being clairvoyant I have no idea what the attorneys in that particular case are doing, they may be wrong, then again they may be crafty as heck. You of course have read their minds and know all, so I will do as I intended and shut the eff up. P. J.
