PI Bill Warner
I just stumbled upon this. This idjit writes a blog post about a piece of art I created, the SIOA logo.
from http://pibillwarner.wordpress.com/2010/06/05/pamela-geller-and-sioa-logoplagiarism-of-regions-bank-logo-from-their-save-campaign/
SIOA logo.. plagiarism?
On the left is the SAVE campaign logo from Regions Bank that started last year, 2009. On the right is the SIOA logo that the Directors of SIOA Pamela Geller and Robert Spencer started using April 5th, 2010, see link click here .
Is it just me or do they look a wee bit similar with the same block style capital letters and the same “S” letter at the begining of the 4 letter logo and with two letters stacked upon two other letters and with one letter tilted to the right? Hold on. Wait a minute. The Regions Bank version has a guy riding a bike. Never mind, it’s clearly different.
There are at least 3 Regions Bank Branch locations within 2 miles of the condo linked to Pamela Geller in Fort Lauderdale Fl, the site of her infamous ‘Bikini Vlogs” see video click here, see map for Regions bank locations near the Geller condo , click here… I’m sure Regions Bank is thrilled.
What is this guy, a retard? The SIOA logo isn’t based on the Region’s Bank logo. It’s based on what the Region’s Bank logo is based on; the iconic and ubiquitous Robert Indiana Love logo -
Hey, Warner, I have another case for you to get on, STAT!
Mike Judge is CLEARLY plagiarizing Jim Henson. Go gettem Warner!
Listen, douche, before you start ignorantly throwing around the charge of plagiarism, maybe you should bone up on rudimentary art and get a level of sophistication equal to either Beavis or Butthead, mmkay?

If you say he’s an idjit, I say he’s an idjit. I’ve read you long enough to know you are right!

Way to go Private Dick!
The douche nozzle shut down his comment section at his blog.
Somebodies got an axe to grind, thank God he’s an idiot.

So Private Dick gets it wrong on multiple levels. He thinks Geller actually created the work that you created and it was her proximity to the bank logos that inspired it?!?! Wow somebodies not getting the detective of the year award.
Bwahahahahahahahahah Bwahahahahahahahaha

The logo was created because she felt echoing the LOVE logo for an organization that is committed to stopping the spread of Islamic hate was sublime.
It was all Geller. I might’ve made the logo, but she’s the clever one.
My contribution was to echo the Jasper Johns pop art flag so it became an homage to 2 iconic pieces of American art: the design of Indiana with the grunge texture of Johns.

Damnit BFH the word is eegit, not idjit. You Americans have really damaged so many wonderful Irish words. “he’s a fookin’ eegit.” For example.

When it comes to artwork,no one is dumber than I,and I knew about the LOVE artwork. This guy must be a Harvard man. Had to look up ubiquitous.

With all due respect, I’m thinking Pam could have stood up in that shallow water. And, while that would have been a nice, if distracting, view, it would have been nicer if the videographer had done the same instead of trying to balance himself on an innertube in the one-foot “surf,” which was very distracting. Had he been using a videocam instead of a telephone, he’d also have known about the exposure lock most of them have.
Sooo: Content = A+, Technique = D-
And, oh yeah… Paul Drake would have dug and found ROBERT INDIANA’s source. Ditto Mannix. Ditto Serge A. Storms (I’ll bet Pam knows who that is!)
