Stolen Artwork

Yeah I think some of Roz and Vex's screenshot manips might have been used, but the quality of the images is so greatly reduced that it's hard to tell for sure. These, however, are obvious:

Fuckstick. I didn't look through them all but I know the first two from SA and the last from DA. This sucks, sorry .

Yeah they had to reduce the image quality to get them to fit after they cropped off the text that was on each one of those pictures. I know for sure that some of Roz and Vex's are in there. And there are others that I've seen around over the past several years. It just really pisses me off that people really think that anything on the internet is free!

I did at least get the cleric chick (Sumii) to take down her magelo and sig images that were mine. But I really want to know who owns the ramath site where they are all hosted. I want to know who had the balls to steal that many images! Then I want to force feed that person's those very same balls!!!!! There isn't an artist out there who deserves this.

Oh what the FUCK! I registered on their board and posted in that testing thread as well as pm'd sumii. I asked her to tell me where she found our artwork so I could ask them directly to take them down. Granted I'm not even sure if she had asked first if I would have given her permission, more than likely maybe, but that's just goddamn tacky. They literally took my best pieces and considering how few and far between they are, that fucking stung.

Thanks for the headsup, Sun!

let us know how they respond.. if they respond, and you know, if we ought to start sending hatemail and stuff 😤

Actually I would appreciate that no one register over there and start some shit. It sounds like that girl is agreeing to take our pieces down. I hope no one from SMMO gets retarded and spams them. =x Gonna have to mention that over there.

The deviantArt artist Liliana Sanches (=Princess-of-Shadows) recently had a bout of artwork stolen from her site.

She wrote a nice article about How to act when your work is stolen.

And while it primarily deals with incidents at deviantArt, I hope it gives you some advice and help.

🙂

She apologized and said she took them down. Good enough for me. I offered to maybe whip something up for her if she sent me some screenshots. I don't mind doing stuff like that or even someone using my art - it's just when they do such a crappy job and destroy all that work I friggin did - man that BURNS!
