Post by: DannyGordon on August 22, 2011, 01:39:37 AM
FYI another art thief has been exposed over @ Planetside Forums, He has a Gallery @ Fine Art America user name GT Fumetti http://fineartamerica.com/profiles/gt-fumetti.html I highly suggest everyone spreads this link around as several Terragen Artists have found thir images being sold by this guy. He has over a hunderd Fractal Images as well
*also goes by GenTerra

Thanks for the heads up Danny, unfortunitely things like this will continue to happen, copyright laws for art posted on the Web are more porors than cheesecloth, the only way to fight it is with viggilance like this. Smack him in the face with the fact he's being watched, and even better go to the regestering entity, they will dump a site in a heartbeat they get enough bitches. The members of the DevArt commumity just recently brought enough heat against GoDaddy that they dumped this guy for stealing Fractal work  and selling it.

Yeah the guys @ Planetside got on FAA and they closed this guy down, His personal site is is terminated as well, hes hiding with his tail between his legs. I just seen a lot of fractal work so I figure i would drop by and give a heads up, he was selling Terragen works, Photography, Fractal Images. Turns out he runs a Bike shop in Arizona, what a tool. Cheers guys

Hmm, he's too lazy to steal 2 different artworks, so he just makes the tiniest edit of colour to make a second stolen artwork without all the hard work of stealing. The artworks yarn and clouds are identical. And also he seems to be very boastful. And no taste in art. So he's a tasteless, lazy, boastful robber.
