Kinda need your help

I looked at my stats this morning and found out THIS so called designer has totally ripped off my myspace! Everything - an the annoying thing is he is even using my background hosted on my account.


Anything I can do? Took me ages to make that design.

what? the pink "i rip off peoples designs" one?

[JaysGirl]

Yeah, he was using my background which is hosted on my account so I changed it to that :] Only thing I can do for now

[El Peligroso]

not sure what you can do, if anything to be honest sorry...

looking at that pink background image has messed my eye's up though, so i guess that's a job well done

[JaysGirl]

haha :] well thanks anyway


I hate people like that :[

you could get a creative commons logos on your site

[El Peligroso]

I suppose you could just change it to advertise your site...

i am sorry, but as far as myspace goes... its a place where rules go out the window.

You did exactly what you should have done, if the jack ass is hotlinking your images, you did well to **** with him good.

But really, thats all you can do. I would just throw a copyright on your page if your showing your work there, just to protect yourself from someone truly RIPPING your work for profit.

Thanks again for the replies - Im throwing on a copyright now, and looking into the creative commons logo.

yeah. Myspace...psh....more like piratespace. I see so many good deviant art images get ripped off on thier. People claiming they took the picture. Or even that they are the person in the picture...

You can have a hidden watermark on your images so they cant be right clicked.
