It takes a lot to make me mad, but today, I received a note from another deviant telling me of the sale of one of "MY" works on Ebay!!!!!! Here is what the note said!
STRIKE 2
I'm sorry to say that I came across a person on Ebay who is using your beautiful fractal dragon artwork and selling it as an image on a cigarette container here: [link]

There is a thread in the ripping forum on deviant art here discussing this particular seller if you are looking for more information: [link] I didn't know for sure whether you gave this seller permission to sell your artwork or not, so I thought I should let you know just in case.

If anyone out there has a billiant idea or suggestion....please let me know otherwise I am considering deleting my entire gallery so that my work is not longer stolen. To think that someone is making a profit off of my work! F***ers!!!!!!! I will be sending a note to the "OFFENDERS" and will publish it here for all to see....including a response if I receive one.

Don't worry...everyone here is like my family. I am not going to leave, but I will seriously have to think about whether or not I post work in the future.

STRIKE 1
About 2 months ago, another deviant claimed to have seen my artwork advertised on the side of a building in Las Vegas. They were positive it was my work because of my signature. Here is an exerpt from that note.......

"My mother went to Vegas recently and said she saw some of your fractal work in a light display, writhing and entertwining and whatnot.
I told her she may have seen something similar to or resembling your stuff, but she was very certain, so.. I asked if it said "Deborah's Designs" underneath, like most of your fractals do, and she replied that it did.
So.. I am now saddened that I missed that, but I wanted to mention it to you."
I asked her if she can tell me where she saw it, but she said she could only remember it was on a large screen on one of the nice buildings.
