They are about to get one from me to. I just copied Rhi's and altered it a bit. LOL! -------------------- I am writing to ask you to remove any of my images you have displayed in the gallery on your website. It would seem that you imply that the images may be for sale. I don't know if this is your intention, but my images are copyrighted, as are most all of the images I recognize, and I do not recall giving you permission to display these images in any way whatsoever, much less on a commercial site. My images are copyrighted and are protected by international copyright laws. Unauthorized use of my original images, without express permission from me, is forbidden. I want them removed within 24 hours. (I suggest you remove all the images since we are a tightly knit community and most of the artists displayed on your site have been contacted and are rather irate about this violation of thier work and copyright.) Section of your website containing copyrighted work of many, many angry Renderosity artists - http://www.arielsdreams.com/freegallery.htm Thank you for your attention in this matter. Your website host Valueweb has already been contacted by myself and many other artist's at Renderosity whose images are being displayed on your commercial site in violation of thier copyright due to your already insufficient response to several of the artist's complaints. Removing only those images of the artist's who contact you is hardly cooperation on your part. You DO NOT own the the copyright on ANY of those images displayed on your site and you ARE in violation of copyright law, as well as your webhost's Terms of Service. Regards, -Emily Thrasher aka. nikitacreed -------------------- I already contacted the host last night. I felt I should send this one because I really don't like that crap about each artist needing to CONTACT her to have thier images removed. What a load of crap. -Em
