I just found this seller who copied my description of this book. But even worse, they hotlinked ot all my pictures! (plus a few of someone elses). So I reported them to Ebay, but not before I changes my first image to a nice little message for anyone who reads it. In retrospect, I should have changed it to donkey porn, but I think this will do fine.

The same thing happened to me about 2 years ago and I did the exact same thing except I modified ALL my pics. It took the seller 3 days before they noticed it! In retrospect, I should have done the donkey porn too...

Well, the thing is I still need all those pictures and didnt want to have to re-name them all and make new ones or whatever. If Ebay hasn't cancelled his auction in a day or 2 though, I might just do it. It would be very funny to see a page of donkey lovin' on his auction!

I still don't know why I'am infactuated with Tikifish (?), but... anyone caught messing with T-fish down HB way is in for an ass-whoopin' ala The Smokin' Menehunes late-nite special!

"Hi! I'm Fishstick. I'm a graduate Ontario College of Art, but now I work as a copywriter at a big bad advertising agency. I'm really quite a nice person despite all that, and I like avocados a lot. Thankyou."
"Note: this illustration was swiped from Michiko (whose fabulous drawings can be found at www.michiko.com). I altered it some to look like me. May the gods of copyright (and Michiko) have mercy on my soul."
So Jane what I gather here is that it is not ok to copy pictures that you copied from a book, BUT it is ok to take another artists image change it to look like you and not ask permission. I think I need help with this, is this double standard? I can understand your being upset about someone hotlinking to your pictures but you took an artists art and changed it, if that was Shag I wonder what would happen.
