It appears to be Fan Art. Well, for a certain definition of "fan".

Anybody know whose it is?

Pulling until we can get permission.

UPDAET:

A Tineye search reveals that it's a Demotivational Poster with the frame cropped. I'm assuming that that fact doesn't inherently make it radioactive or something.

No dice on the artist, though; the only results I got appeared to be on blogs.

We have a word for Demotivational Posters with the frames cropped. They're called images. Still, we should try to put in some effort to get permission, since it is a decent picture.

Given how spread around this pic is, I'm not sure if we're going to be able to track down the artist. I can't tell, is that sig "Moe" or "Mog" or something else?

While searching, I found this...got a good chuckle.

"We have a word for Demotivational Posters with the frames cropped. They're called images."

That's what I meant, that I am assuming that the fact that an image was first uploaded as a demotivator is not valid grounds for an argument against an image.

You are correct. The fact that it was a demotivator is not grounds for removal as long as the frame and caption have been cropped.

There's no reason to remove this image.

Yeah, it's a great image, just so long as we have permission.

If the image is spread around it doesn't seem like we would need or could get permission. Wouldn't the rule of thumb be to leave something up unless someone, or the site it comes from, specifically say that we need permission?

I agree only if "something" is limited to this image.

Techically we don't need permission for fanart. It's polite, but we don't need it.

It's a good image.

Since tracking down a source for this is probably gonna be next to impossible, if another suggestion isn't made it'll go back on the page with an appropriate tag.

I think it's a date - M 08.

I have an idea or two, but I'm not on a computer that can search for images just now. :/ Hang on for a bit.

Tineye just brings up a bunch of demotivators, none of which are large or give the real source. In the event that [up] can't come up with anything, [up][up] is good with me.

That was the amazing part. Things just keep going.
