Re: Wait a minute. his expressed desire not to have his work scanned and posted here is why his work is banned on s_d.
That's not an accurate characterization of David's public statement: "I have EXPLICITLY said that I have no problem with 'snippets.' A few panels here, a page there. Anything that remotely falls under the realm of fair use is of no concern. And the comment about wanting people to consult with me over reproducing 'even small portions' of my work is, again, 180 degrees away from what I said. What I had said was that—giving a for-instance—if people wanted to produce LARGE amounts (such as the 50% that was reproduced of X-Factor) of work to which I own the copyright (such as Fallen Angel) that they but had to approach me and we could likely work something out."
The scans_daily moderators appear to me to have banned all Peter David material out of an abundance of caution, perhaps mixed with some pique. They did not do so because David expressed a desire for none of his work to be shared this way.
