I recently caught news of an art theft issue pertaining to the 101 Dalmatians Fandom. One of our members, Mizan's art was stolen (plus colored over) and posted without her permission via Facebook by this user www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100003044078565&sk=photosThe Stolen Image posted on said facebook: www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100003044078565&sk=photos#!/photo.php?fbid=106465952798207&set=t.100003044078565&type=3&theater (copy/paste whole link in address bar to work) I wanted to post this (and Sticky this thread) so that all of the artists here on Sparky's can be alerted about this epidemic. This epidemic of our artwork being posted and colored over by these "Facebook Fan Dalmatian" accounts. The account I linked is just one of the many fan dalmatian Facebook accounts we artists need to be careful and wary of. There have also been accounts posted for Flo's characters, to my knowledge without her permission www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100001860367541So everyone be careful about posting your artwork!

Thanks for the warning, Nemo. I hate people that do that kind of crap.

I see Bab, Olwe, Trey, Oddy, Flo and most surprisingly, Tex. Pretty sure that she didn't want her pics being used like this. Hell knows just how many others there are on similar profiles... On another note, I find the "Real-Disney-Dalmatian" surnames hilarious.

They did that on Rebecca's with a bunch of Angel/Partner's pictures, and on Maxine's with one of Kitexa's. We've alerted them and have chatted with them about trying to remedy the situation, which lead to Alfie trying to convince the Rebecca to take down the pictures and her refusing. =/

YIPES! O.O Art Theft at it again? Just peeves my nerves when someone is so lazy, they can't even make their own pictures, so steal others and pass it off as their own.
Just because you like it, doesn't give you right to steal it, add poorly rendered Paint Pixels on it and say "I made this." We're not idiots, Pups, we can tell there's something suspicious, when someone, who has shown art that'll make a Pre-Schoolers doodle with Crayons, look like the Sistine Chapel, and then have a radically different art style, two days later.
I think I made a rant about it here in the Rant Thread, noting a way you can see theft is if the Art varies ALOT.
But it is still a serious matter. I also assumed that one with all the Lucky pics was Two-Tone's FB. ^^;
I don't mind others using my art, as long as I am credited and they don't say I was the one who stole the Art from them (We've got "Submit Dates" to prove them wrong).
Thanks for the heads up, Nemo! ;3 I wonder what happens with this. o.o

I can't believe they're doing this! What's with these people on FaceBook stealing art and characters from this board? I can't stand this, and I can't stand this one person on FaceBook using Priscilla and giving her the full name "Priscilla Taylor Dalmatian".

Is Taylor even her middle name, Flo? But I think all you can do is report the individual pics one at a time, I know there's a fairly lengthy form you gotta fill out though <<
And TT I think you are.
