Hehe, I like that name.

Glad it got cleared up.

Doesn't it just SUCK when people out there just TAKE someone's image (non- celebrities) and call it theirs?

I can understand people using a celebrity's image as an avatar or a popular character, movie, or cartoons and the likes - that's more of an homage from a fan (to generalize). But when people just take someone's face that's NOT a celebrity, and then use it as their on-line persona, that's just CREEPY!

I recently found that one of the animated GIFs on my site was getting a LOT of hits, and NOT from the page it's embedded on. I realized (by the referrers) that someone was using it on a message forum as their avatar. This particular icon was of MY FACE!




Ok, now I don't exactly look like that in every-day life, but I really didn't like someone using MY face as THEIR facade. It was really weird!

I ended up slapping my www and a (C) on it. I figured if they want to use it, fine - but it will reflect my dot-com on it!

They stopped using it two days later. I caught that because they made the mistake of linking directly to it. I can only imagine how many other people may have just copied it to their own web space and called it theirs.

I mean, come on - I'm NOT famous, nor is that image a part of pop-culture... and I have YET to collect a dime for any of my manipulated imagery!

Ok. That's it. I just wanted to share because someone stole my face too, and it felt really WEIRD!on line abortion pill misoprostol dose abortion medical abortion pill onlineabortion pills online abortion pill online purchase cytotec abortion

This is a problem with our newly digital society. So many people equate digital with FREE. If it's digital it's fair game. It's why piracy is rampant. People don't see digital files as posessions. It sucks in my opinion.

Hey - thanks!

A guy at work was telling me something similar when it happened. I take that as a HUGE compliment (from you, the guy at work, and someone who thinks it's cool enough for an avatar).

BUT the thing that really bothers me is that I am not someone famous, who everyone would see that and associate it with my artistic talents. PLUS, it is my face, and (again, not being famous or well known or part of pop-culture) it feels really WEIRD and freakish to know someone is out there communicating with others... behind my face.

I actually have had people ask permission to use that animation before. One guy a couple of years ago, asked if he could use it in a video game he was making for a school project. He said full credit for the imagery would go to me and no money was being made on the project. I told him go ahead and use it. He was not using it as his face, and was honorable enough to ask me, when he just as well could have just saved it, used it, and passed it off as his own to others.

Yep. There are a lot of free-bees out there on the net (that ARE meant to be free), and then there is the copyrighted material people illegally take, and art (art of all kinds) that people also regularly take and call their own. Anyone who wants to download anything I offer on my site is welcome to do so for free. I offer content for FREE, for anyone who wants to enjoy it. BUT when people use my original works (especially my face) as something they want to talk behind on the net, I would at least like the opportunity to say PLEASE DON'T! Enjoy my stuff - just don't pass it off as yours, or talk from behind my face... at least not until I do become part of pop-culture, and everyone can identify my work as MINE... but that's not an open invitation to take (without paying for) and products or entertainment works I may try and market (in the future).

(I have just about everything from this site in my TRON folder!) Mostly, it's just for me to look at or mess around with in paint shop, because I have little artistic talent myself. But every now and then I mess up and post someones pic for one reason or another (like Mr. Kings Ram drawing). He took it as a compliment, which is the only way I would ever intend it, but not everyone sees it that way. Any how, I would certainly not use someone’s own face as an avatar... That's just freaky! I just try to keep in mind that this stuff is someone else’s hard work, and it's not mine to do with as I please.

You know, I download TONS of stuff from the net - imagery, videos, sounds (generally sound FX), pretty much anything I find interesting and would like to keep around. Most people do and I think that's fine, so long as it does not violate any copyright laws or personal infringement of the people who's works you are downloading.

I probably should add a little blurb to my site asking that people do not use my original material without first getting my approval or something. Right now, I have nothing there about the use of my original works.
