Art theft!

*nidhi-rathish:iconnidhi-rathish: reports, August 19, 2007
I hope I categorized it right.

I was at 'theharem', where I usually hang out, and they were discussing some serious art rip-offs from dA (and other similar art sites) by someone who was obviously just googling words like 'goth' or 'fairy/angel' or 'fantasy'

I did not know at that time what was going on so when I headed over to [link] and I saw that most of the artwork there was stolen and many of us e-mailed Serhat, the site admin (or whatever) serhat@glitter-graphics.com in hope that the concerned person would be removed.

`Hanratty-Stock and the rest of us tried to get as much evidence and links as possible but as you can see the site has so many images; so the task was close to impossible. We couldn't go searching for every stolen image.

So I ask you now to keep an eye out for stolen artwork and if you find any familiar looking image e-mail the url to serhat@glitter-graphics.com


This was her response to my many mails:
"Hi Nidhi,

Don't worry about spending too much time providing proof for each and every image. I trust that you won't make bogus claims. Just give me the graphic URLs and I will delete them.

We're investigating this further and seeing what we can do to better educate our own community at GG. We opened a news message on our frontpage as a preliminary action.

Kind Regards,

Serhat Sakarya
Glitter-Graphics.com"


Please spread the word. Thank you.
