Nice prints mrk, I want some of TF2 but have no idea if anyone in the U.K does them.
I got them printed at a local place (Asher Design) in Portsmouth, the online sites I usually use didn't have 20x16" sizes and I simply email the store with my correctly sized files, give them my spec and go to collect later.
If you have a printing place near you maybe you could do the same. Price was very good, £24 for all 4. If you want to go that route I can send you the PSDs I knocked up, they're correctly cropped and aligned for 20x16".

With loads of included Haribo
He's posted high resolution versions on his blog and all I've done is cropped those to 20x16 print dimensions so all good.

That's how copyright works?
So if I post high res pics and others can crop and print to their heart's content?
It's like saying I can use a section of a song on my website because it's on YouTube.
Unless he states explicitly that you can, by default you can't. I know it's semantics, I mean you've done it already and they can't physically stop you and some people will no doubt argue if they don't want me to print it, they wouldn't put up the high res. The point is I don't think you got the whole copyright thing right, being a photographer yourself you know that. "He put up high res, all I've done is cropped off, it's all good"???
Unless of course, he said it on his site or you asked him in an email and got permission?
Btw, cropping it off...what did you crop off? His watermark?

No, the white border he's put around which I didn't want in the frame. Example, here's the Blade Runner one he's put up: http://www.candykiller.com/extras/brposter.png
Also, semantics is a bugger

I don't need the link for the image, I take your word that there are high res online, but show me the part where he says it's free for me to print it off and do as I pleased though.
Don't really want to get into it but didn't you had to send off an invoice and or threaten legal action because some site used one of your photo?
P.s. You should read this, slightly off topic but a band took a photo, cropped it, put it on Instagram.

The victim becomes the perpetrator!
I type almost all day long and found the increased force on a mechanical keyboard, despite the nice feel was causing my fingers to ache. Had to get rid in the end.
What type of switches did you use? aside from some being linear / having feedback, they each have different levels of activation meaning some switches require more force than others. If you are still thinking about mechanical it might be worth looking into.
I think you're looking too far into this as is usually the case but to clarify, Brian has said there isn't anything stopping someone from printing their own from what he's posted up but given the time he's spent drawing them it's worth supporting his efforts directly. He only offers one size directly and they're not 20x16.
Ultimately this isn't a legalities issue (the two instances you've referenced are, more on those below). In light of that though I've already asked him if he will offer me 20x16 format prints and am still waiting to hear back about that but until then these will do just fine. He's said his original works are over 5 times higher in quality and ultimately that's what I'd rather have on my walls than jpeg prints!
In relation to the other things you've mentioned, different beasts. One was a marketing agency promoting their business using someone's work without crediting them and the other was from a band that had an agreement with their photographer on what should be done when they repost the gig photos and they completely ignored that, didn't provide credit, didn't pay and applied instagram filters to it then slated him on their feeds when questioned!
