I have this dumb image that I uploaded back in February 2005.. it's called Bored.

I did it when I was really, completely bored. It took me about 10 minutes, and it's just the word BORED, written many times using most of my different fonts. Nothing fancy.

It's been my most favourited image to date (115), more so since I moved it into scraps. I wrote a journal entry about it in August 2007 because I thought it amusing.

Anyway.. today, some guy (or girl) came along and liked the image, took a screenshot of the whole page, pasted on some stuff, and uploaded it to their page. Fair enough, but he/she took the time to blur out my name on every part of the screenshot, EXCEPT for the URL bar!

Idiot!

If you're trying to claim someone elses work as your own, at least have the brains to check the final image before you upload it.

**edit
Using the "I'm new and I didn't know" defense is ok if you haven't been a deviant for more than 1 year.

My subscription ran out, and I had come to rely on the gadgets and widgets that come with subscriptions, so now that I'm back to the plain old ad-laden, triple click, thumbnail-less version of the DA pages, it's become tiresome. Some things just run their course eventually.

I've been spending my time over at RedBubble, and there are a few familiar faces there. Give it a try if you're in the mood.

Check here for yours..

Found a whole bunch of my stuff on photobucket, being used on an ebay auction to sell some crap spells, without my permission... and as I was looking through the users photobucket album I noticed many many familiar images.. some from deviantart.

Take a look and see if your stuff is here:

I'm posting this because I'm fed up with arseholes making money off people who play by the rules.
