Jeff Wong alerted me to the furor among artists over what is known as "The Blue Girl Infringement," which involves a piece of proposed bad law called the Orphan Works Act.
Brad Holland at Illustrators' Partnership lays the situation out clearly and includes links to the original Blue Girl art and its infringing advertisement (which has a gratuitous tonearm image, which makes it almost relevant to Stereophilia). Holland also posts a sample letter to Congress should you want to take action. (And you should do it quickly, because the bill's sponsors are attempting an end run around the opposition).
While you're at Illustrators' Partnership, take a look around. It's an interesting site.
