lol wow this took a while to get posted. I saw these books sometime last year, had this reaction for about 10 minutes, then did the same thing I do to the rest of the Emo segment of the population: Forgot about it and ignored it.
Really getting all upity about this to the point of DOING anything will just give more publicity and attention to that which is annoying.
Ya, I work in the book section of Target, and saw these when they came out, but I didn't want all of you to feel the pain I feel inside. <<<Emo. I actually burned down the Target upon seeing this atrocity, and didn't have web access in jail. I'm back now. Luckily I still have the job.
Maybe I have been staring at vectors too much lately, but are the Redneck Greentooth's teeth off center and the curve for the mouth completely off balanced...
The shit with the crabcore cracked me up! Still though, if word gets out, every other 3D forum will mock us(Im looking at you Game Artisans and 3D total) and call us vampire emo crabs. That better not happen!
This got me thinking... what would the protocol be if one were to author a book and wanted to pay homage to polycount by using GreenTooth on the cover art somewhere? You know, spread the word to book readers and all that...
or Polycount could find a new logo. one that is fitting, and couldn't easily be designed by any 8 year old in 5 seconds. did you guys seriously think this was the only place in the interwebs to find a toothed smiley?
shit, this is getting serious, haha. it might lead to nuclear warfare, or worse, the supreme being might take us out of the matrix. i've got a swiss army knife.
I always thought the green-tooth smiley was pretty generic so I don't understand how anyone could actually believe it's stolen. It's sorta like laying claim to an original stick-figure design.

I say we go all 4-chan on these emo bastards and show them what the f' is up.
That's no way to deal with this sort of situation, T4pan.
What we need to do is invite an representitive from the Vladmir Tod over here to gain an understanding of our community and its patron diety. Then we return his head in a box with his face painted green.

Actually, that's much better than my idea. Let's get to work. I'm bringing the saw (cutting heads with axes is for pussies).

Crab Core really hasn't got that many thumbs up on Urbandictionary, it obviously deserves more!
