Let me tell you. Many of you probably remember Death_2_U_All=after many names, Cadash. He got pissed at Verdie for a reply she made to a thread and went after her pics, he thought she had Poser so it was my pics that got slimed. Then he came back with a new name and dowloaded two pics of Verdie's and one of mine and posted them as his own. We caught him quite quickly and Trav was nice enough to take them down and lock the guy out of the site. My pics, as well as yours, are all copyrighted to you and mine to me. This person infringed on my copyright, so I know how it feels folks. But I didn't let it stop me from posting. The same evening I got mad and created my vampire skull image called "Some Will Not Die". There was a dual meaning to that title that no one understood. Yes, it was about the vampire skull, but it was also in reaction to this guy. I wasn't going to let him run me off. Don't let one ass hole run you off and spoil it all for the rest of us. As Allie says, only a legal action, probably backed by Zygote will be the way to handle him. In the meantime, there are probably others doing the same thing that we do not know about. Should this stop us as a community from sharing our works with one another and giving help to one another. I do not believe that I would have taken the plunge into Poser if there had not been the support through objects and textures, and the friendly help that is available through this community. If it had not been here, I probably wouldn't have bought the program.
