Not cool

 

But how did you find that out?

I checked a forum that I regularly visit that directed me to some other forums. I checked the artwork section and saw a topic about a Krana banner. I clicked it, and it showed the banner I made for Torongo. He didn't give any credit to me, nor Silver Avohkii Productions (or was it Spectral Avohkii Enterprises?). He also re-uploaded it to his Brickshelf account along with some of my other banners.

An efficent way to prevent stuff like this is to make a transparent logo in the background.

 

I also recall a topic a few years ago about a situation similar to this, where BZP Mocs were being copy/pasted onto the Lego Boards.

Oh. That's not right.

I think that Blue Fire's suggestion would be the best option here.

Oh dude, I'm sorry.

 

Someone did that with a sprite I made a while back. He didn't know I went to that forum too.

gotta start marking your stuff bro

 

What I used to do (because I haven't done any original art in a long time) is write my name tiny somewhere in the image with pixels that where just slightly off color of the ones around them, so it could only be seen zoomed in.

You know what they say, outright theft is the most sincere form of flattery.

@Blue Fire, Caliga, and Haz: Thanks for the advice. I used to mark my stuff with a "C!", but I stopped because I figured no one would steal my art.

 

@AT: What did he say after you accused him?

 

@Spirit:

Wow, that sucks. Maybe you should add text into your banners saying "Made by Chunky!" Just kidding.

look at it this way: this guy sucks
