Hattest Du mitbekommen, dass dich auf Deviantart neben BoXXi und JamMeister33 auch einer gerippt hatte ? Ist inzwischen auch gebannt.

i don't know why people do that! i hate such people.
ripped walls:

- rotaufblaufblautransparentbrille.jpg
the problem of rips is that someone gets comments how good and awesome he is as "designer"! that's really

I guess they cannot do it themselves so they steal it. They get there name in the limelight for a while and at worse they have them removed, and or get exiled. Thats no big deal because all they have to do is create a new account with a different name and they are back in business. Pity.

yes more downloads and more wonderful comments 
... but, i like to do wallpaper and sometimes you need much time and hard work to make a wallpaper and of course the idea of the wallpaper and it's so bad that someone rips the concept and all the hard work of you... a thing that you had created! > > >

Manche Leute sind halt einfach nur dumm. Auf DA hat schon einer ein DX-Theme (Sountox) von mir gerippt und mich, als ich es gemerkt hatte auf's übelste beschimpft... Ist dann nach erneuter Meldung an die Admins auch kurzerhand 'rausgeflogen...

I really dislike putting my signature and copyright on my pictures. They can be removed anyway with a little ingenuity. Lousy thieves, I hate them >

He's right, most people don't like to download your pictures if they're signed. I noticed that long ago.

bigronny, If it's small and at the bottom there will be little problem. The object bar will cover it.

There are far too many talented artists here and elsewhere to allow any 'borrowing' to go on, whether it be icons, ui elements, photos, or complete works. There will always be people without the moral resources to discern the varying degrees of the evil.
There's a lot of effort going on to change things, but those people are abused a great deal for their efforts. The next time you see a 'copyright' discussion, remember situations like this. If people are allowed the steal that image of J.Lo's butt, why should they not assume they are allowed to steal from you?

bigronny...
When you create a work, whether it is uploaded anywhere or not, it has an inherent copyright.
When uploaded to a site, a script may include '© bigronny', but that is simply a courtesy thing.
With the '©' or without, or with your signature or without, makes no difference.
All you need to be able to show is verification that the work is yours....by date or perhaps 'work in progress' pics.
99 times out of 100, who is the ripper and who is the 'rippee' is easy to determine, even without that....
A good trick is still to 'sign' your work for 2 reasons.
1. Anyone who has your work already will be able to 'know' it is one of yours....[I have a lot of walls with no idea whose they are].
2. Many rippers are so inept that even blanking a signature is beyond them and can be seen for what it is.
BoXXi's ripper on DA also ripped 7thsign here, and one of his walls still had 7thsign's name on it.....really wasn't hard to show as a rip...
IF you put a sig on your work, make it VERY unobtrusive so it does not 'ruin' the wall.
If a problem arises with a rip we will look VERY closely at the walls to attempt to find evidence of tampering...pixel by pixel if needed.
As baker said, we do make a great deal of effort to police property theft/forgery.
In the case of LilMegz97, who cross-ripped both to Wincustomize and Devart, he was exiled here by BoXXi [poetic justice], and my policy violation notification at DA came back from Reality Squared as that he'd been banned there as well.
It is always a MAJOR DRAMA when it is yourself who becomes the target of a ripper, but bear in mind that this is happening to someone, somewhere ALL THE TIME, and it is up to all of us to do as much as we can to help put an end to it.
Unfortunately, summary execution isn't an option, but all that is needed is for people to keep their eyes open, and report rips as and when they are found.
If you publicly report it, be aware that sometimes people get it wrong, and it isn't a rip, so try to keep things cordial and factual.
Nothing is gained by public flaming or emotional invective...
