I recognised several of her walls as others work - but I like to be sure of my facts ..I just got through sending a note to http://valentinakallias.deviantart.com/
Her work was also used as this persons newly uploaded wallpaper.

The fact that this person named the original artist in the above post on their latest wall - id say its a lack of understanding that you just can't take others work and revamp it - then upload it.

I was thinking more on the lines of a language problem. When others wrote on the wall ( the one My Secret posted ) and asked if they had permission to use those images - they never replied - yet they posted the source of the images on their next upload...like that was supposed to make it ' ok'

I noticed that even though walls that have been removed from gallery, if I had made a comment on that wall - the links are still active on my WC site in my
" Recent Comments " and you can still click the link and see the removed wall.

Considering that a total of 3 rips have been *Proven 
I hope this person is banned, period
How many rips can you upload before you are banned?
Another question...Should the original artist be notified after it has been removed here?
Fairyy~ I posted a comment on her page
Please note that you need to include written permission from all authors of any works before uploading edited or original works !~!
And will post this in the newest rip clwoods found.
We will have to keep bumping this for Zoomba to see again. I appreciate that Zoomba takes action so quickly and hopefully she will b banned....at least till a new name is registered

There has been a rash of rips this week. IMO anyone that rips work is not able to do their own and all work they do is a rip. If a person can do their own art, why would they need to rip?

MY SECRET, the link you left on the work in question goes back to the work in question. Have you seen it at DevArt?

ha ha no Going by what you said, deleted the link, it was meant to go here ...
thanks clwoods
Taking outright credit tells me alot about the type of person she is. I'd even give an oops once....but not over & over. On the 1 I reported did you follow the link to deviant art.....4 pages of congrats about that wall. To try to take that away from someone.
By the way clwoods do you think the original author should be told? I'd appreciate any opinion, haven't done this before.
Thanks Jafo

I guess that would be up to you. I did. The one I reported was ripped from a dear friend of mine. I think it is fine either way. I am pretty new to this too. Seems there has been a rash of them lately.

If I can find their DA site I usually leave them a note and the link to WC just to be sure they didn't give permission - I really think its safe to assume all her/his walls are not original. 2 of the others I know I've seen before - but Im not going to spend all day searching for them at DA.
