Ah, yes so Melis was curious, what would photbucket pull up if I typed in my tokyopop username?
Well let me tell ya, it pulled up A LOT!
First off, the photobucket user AngstOwen decided to steal, yes STEAL, about 31 of MY drawings and then POST THEM on PHOTOBUCKET, WITHOUT PERMISSION.
Melis here is very, VERY distrested and VERY pissed. PEOPLE, I STATE that I DO NOT WANT PEOPLE USING MY DRAWINGS ANYTIME OR ANYWHERE FOR ANY REASON!!! There is a reason for this; because they are MY DRAWINGS, and I would like to get CREDIT for al the hard work I put into them!
I contacted Photobucket and hopefully they will get back to me soon and take care of this situation, as it seems that AngstOwen has no intention of removing the pictures, not to mention Melis here has no way of contacting them!
So, here's where I call in you, my fans and fellow Tokyopop members and admin in...
If ANYONE knows who AngstOwen is on Tyokyopop ( as in their user name) then please, PLEASE send me a link to their profile! I WANT my drawings removed from photobucket and this user had no right to steal them and then upload them for others to use without permission. So please, if anyone knows how to contact a member via photobucket or has any information on the photobucket user AngstOwen, or knows their Tokypop user name, then please leave a comment or private message because I NEED to get in contact witih them ASAP so they can remove my art work!
Relax people, i'm a very nice and reasonable person and have no intention of ripping this user or person a new one x_x' However, they are breaking copyright laws and have stolen my art and trust me, no artist wants that, especially when they SAY they don't want their art being used period! Also, I only have a few drawings on Photobucket. The drawings AngstOwen has uploaded onto their profile have never been uploaded by me to photobucket, thus they had to come here and take them!
All in all, Melis is good but busy, and now even more annoyed. darn you evil people for using my art without permission! Let this be a lesson and warning to anyone else who is using and stealing my artwork without permission; I WILL prusue you to the fullest. I'm pretty much willing to flood photbucket's mail box until they get back to me x_x So if you are using my artwork you'd better darn well take it down and fast! I truly, do not want to water mark my drawings as it is very annoying to see letters and words and to me, ruins the drawing as a whole. But I'm starting to think I may have to...u_u
Also, i've banned several people from my clans. I don't care how anal you all think I am, if the group says it's dedicated to Fruit's Basket or Bleach ONLY, then DO NOT post picture(s) of Naruto or Inu Yasha! darn it people, do you have any idea how long it takes to remove all that unrelated group content? HOURS! Because people post soo much of it! Seriously, it's annoying. Either don't join the clan or take the extra 30 seconds to make sure you're not high lighting my clans with all the other ones.
Other then that, PLEASE help me out here guys! I'm sure everyone here knows what's its like to have your art used without permission and stolen, so you can only image how I feel with half my drawings posted on a huge image hosting site. Any information or help in this matter would mean a lot to me!
Again, thank you all SOOOOO SO SO MUCH for all the pops, views, adding me, and joining my clans! 90,000+ views and 818 pops and still going strong! Thanks you guys, you really rock! So yeah, that; sall for now! Toodles my friends!!!
