An idea bites the dust... or not

I had a thought for something I could do for SL9B - a spoof "Museum of Avatar Prehistory", with faux-archaeological commentary getting everything spectacularly wrong about old video games.

Unfortunately, SL9B's published policies mean, basically, I would have to get written permission from every copyright holder of every image I used - even though it would be totally "fair use" under the most rigorous standards of copyright law.  I really don't have time or energy to jump through all those pointless hoops.

However... I may wind up doing it anyway.  I have prims spare in Steam SkyCity, it's a fun idea, and not doing it for SL9B would mean it didn't have to vanish when the birthday-party sims close down.  And I wouldn't have to do it all in a bit of a rush, too.  So.  This is one I shall add to the background list of Stuff I Mean To Get On With.  More on this later, perhaps.
