How to get away with using copyrighted material?
I'm a graphic designer:
one of my Instructors in school once said: for a image of a anything or anyone you have to change the it from the original at least 5 different ways and you wont get lawyers coming to your house..
i notice on cafe press; people are just using clipped images from the internet as their t-shirt designs... how is this possible that they are not getting flagged???
Others use a character in a composition with the character in a different background and so on
(which i can understand; in a way it is original and its nothing the company has thought of)
if this is ok then.... i have tons of ideas.....
* OR what about using an existing character or person and doing a original illustration of the character(you know, like fan art)??
aside form images;
how do u get away with using quotes or lyrics in a t-shirt design in cafe press??
I wouldn't live and die by the magic 5 changes rule your professor said. There's no number of changes that will guarantee you wont get sued. In most cases it's at the discretion of the judge, jury, or committee to decide if the reproduction is close enough to the original image to be considered copyright infringement.
Fan art is one thing, but the minute you start making money off of it from sales, it's illegal.
A lot of people get away with it, just because there aren't enough people to police every copyright. It's usually a matter of the creator of the artwork (or the owner of it's rights) to bring it to the attention of the illegal vendor and file a C&D order.
My advice is just to not do it. Getting sued is no fun. You can end up losing your car, or home, or a percentage of your paycheck for years to come.

How to Cut Costs with your Scrapbooking Hobby
Your scrapbooking needn't be expensive. You can make wonderful layouts on a shoe string budget. Here are some scrapbooking ideas and solutions to save you money.
1. Save all your scraps
I never throw away my paper and card stock scraps. You can use these scraps to make entire backgrounds for your scrapbooking layouts among other things. You make wonderful creations by cutting and layering your scraps and using these as your background for your layout. With a bit of imagination, you will also be able to make effective embellishments out of your scraps, like punch outs, flowers and leaves, and scraps can also be used to matt your photographs.
2. Save the white pages in your albums
All scrapbooking albums come with a plain white paper in the plastic sleeves. Don't throw these away, as you can use these with your scraps to make your patterned paper. They are also acid free, so will be quite safe to use on your scrapbooking layouts.
3. Make your own embellishments
This can be a great cash saver for you, as well as make your pages more personal and unique. There are lots of embellishments that you can make from left over scraps including flowers, flags, punch outs, tags and various other creations. You can also use things like buttons, bits of wool, pipe cleaners, paperclips, soft wire that can be bent into shapes, old jewelery, coasters, patterned wrapping paper and left over stickers - your only limit is your imagination. If you are not sure if something is acid free or not, don't let it touch your photographs, or spray with an acid free spray.
4. Make your own stickers
Stickers are a very popular embellishment, so instead of spending a fortune on them, try making your own. You can buy special sticker paper, or just use regular or glossy card stock and glue your stickers onto your page. Your computer probably has hundreds of clipart images that you can use for this purpose.
5. Save all your mementos
If you go somewhere special, collect items that you can use such as coasters, brochures, tickets, menu's, receipts, business cards or even small shells. Doing this will also give your layouts a more personal feel.
6. Purchase Neutral Colors
When purchasing stock for your kit, as far as possible, stick to neutral colors, especially for things like brads and eyelets. When I buy inks, I always stick to browns and black, as they are useful on all of my layouts. If you buy too many colors, most of them won't be used and sit in your kit for years.
