I applied for a Capital One Journey Card and they're giving me the option of uploading my own photos to put for the design of the card. Does anyone know where I can maybe get non-copyrighted images of Shenmue? Trying to find a loophole :rotflmao:

I think the copyright for games mainly covers the sourcecode, as long as you don't sell the picture no one will even bother trying to make a case against you

I'd go ahead and just send them a regular piece of Shenmue artwork and see what they say about it.

If not there's a great range of fun fanart online, I like this one.

Thanks for the suggestions. They actually review the pics before they give me the card. I tried putting a pic of Scully and Mulder from the X-Files and they sent me the standard looking card lol. I'll just see what happens with a Shenmue pic.

Don't see why they're not printing the image unless it's the colours or something. Think they're just messing you around.

Copyrighted or trademarked material not owned by a Capital One partner – if you didn't take the photo or own the image, we cannot accept it. View examples.
• Branded products (except those associated with a Capital One Partner)
• Provocative, lewd, or sexual content – including nude or semi-nude pictures of people of any age
• Celebrities/musicians/public figures/athletes/cartoons, etc. (except for those associated with approved Capital One partner)
• Violence, violent acts or any type of death imagery (e.g. images of skulls)
• Socially unacceptable or discriminatory behavior or signs (e.g. gangs, hatred, drug/alcohol abuse, graffiti)
• Profanity or other obscene behavior or gestures
• Images of money from any country (including the United States) where money is the central focus of the photo
• Images of flags. (Our gallery contains flag related imagery – please review those images if you are interested in having a flag on your card.)
• Controversial subject matter such as political or religous statements and/or images
• Phone numbers (e.g. 800 or 900 #'s) and URL addresses (e.g. www.capitalone.com)
• Competitive marks/names (e.g. Discover, American Express, etc.)
• Any references to the Olympic Games or events
• Any photo that might result in non-acceptance or other problems at the point of sale
• Any printing or process that interferes with the required security features of the card

^ Those are the guidelines. Express yourself my ass. They pretty much took out every single kind of image you could use.

Nothing there that says why you can't have a picture of Ryo Hazuki from an old as fuck game.

I'm gonna guess they either considered it part of the -copyright- or -cartoon- aspect

Take a really zoomed in picture of your ballsack so they can't quite tell what it is.

ha no clue who that is but no it's not. And upload it for all to see as in capital one's public gallery. they let you upload your own "masterpieces" for everyone to use. I can see it now; millions of people walking into stores and whipping out their ahem, credit cards of my nutsack. I feel like Hitler.
