On the website Custom Drop Shipping, you can find designs with STOLEN ART of many artists! Spread the word!

http://www.customdropshipping.com/personalized-shop/n/transformers-161/page/1

Artists solidarity!

I sent a mail to the website sales manager and I recieved that answer:

"Thanks for informing us!
However, they are designed by our artist.
We have no right to delete all his work unless you can show us your copyright.
Hope you can understand!"

So everyone that got art stolen have to step in and show them their original work I guess... I can't do much than warn as much people as I can as, this time, none of my work is in the list.

Good luck to all!

Ugh, I've got a Slingshot pic that got nicked by this bunch for a cellphone case. I've sent the website manager an email but haven't heard a reply yet. Sorry to see that a pile of other artists got their work stolen as well :/.

Apparently the fact that lots of people reported their art as being stolen paid off this time! So far, lots of art was removed and the link to the thief's gallery now brings to the welcome page of the website and no more to that "designer"'s account. Lets keep our eyes open and ARTISTS' SOLIDARITY!

Your link just leads to a 'personalised' page, so it looks like any complaints already sent might have done the trick!

Exactly what I said in my last post ^^ Team work worked and they removed everything! That's amazing how fast the news spreaded with the net! Within a few hours it was known from a lot of people!

If it happens again, email Rich at www.bleedingcool.com

He loves these, and exposes them fairly regularly.

That Superman is by Jim Lee. Or is that art not the one that's stolen?
