I guess ya hit the big time to have something good enough to be ripped, but it does suck. One of those 2 edged swords.

The funny thing is, I reported BoXXis and Your wall as rips, the idiot has gotten a 'policy violation' note and the rips are still there. Well, maybe a matter of time difference.

I sure hope they make him take them down, this is very disturbing to me...
Thanks again, pal!

Yeah, the two walls in question are gone. You're welcome, btw.

Let me get this straight..... Did a member called lilmegz rip my work and upload it to devianart as his own?

Reply #8 November 13, 2002 2:52 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

BoXXi: yes, that appears to be correct

Reply #9 November 13, 2002 2:55 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

It most certainly is the truth, Boxxi... I reported him for it and they seem to have corrected it.

BoXXi : Yes and one wall of JamMeister33. I didn't recognize the other walls, so I don't know about them...

Reply #11 November 13, 2002 2:55 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

anyone know which ones he used?

Reply #12 November 13, 2002 2:58 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

This one was also prominently displayed as his own... https://www.wincustomize.com/window.asp?Cmd=PREVIEW&source=http://skins.wincustomize.com/bigronny/wallpapers/infinity.jpg

Oooops, that didn't work, it's one by "bigronny"

Hmmm... Looking at the account information, he appears to be a member here too LilMegz97. Maybe he won't be a member here much longer............
/me has his finger poised on the Exile button.

He uploaded 'Love's Dying Embers' using the original title. That was such idiotic as that is really a wall one recognizes at once.

Ermh, text for that rip : 'worked on it for weeks. Not every day but some hours on weekend. The rings are bryce and all the rest is photoshop. Enjoy it!!!'

Reply #18 November 13, 2002 3:05 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

He uses the same titles and descriptions by the original authors and just tacks on 2002 to the title.

Reply #19 November 13, 2002 3:09 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

I suggested to ban him in the rip-report.
Jam : Be a little cautious with Your comments there, it could happen You get a 'policy-violation', too.

Hehe, what a loser, if it takes such long time to rip, he better makes his own
BTW is he already banned?

Reply #22 November 13, 2002 3:59 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

We can only hope so!

Reply #23 November 13, 2002 4:03 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

He actually has several walls here on WC. https://www.wincustomize.com/skins.asp?authorid=369394 It seems odd that someone who has actually done the work themselves would turn to ripping.

Reply #24 November 13, 2002 4:09 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

I don't understand it either. :/ So the question is : Are the walls here realy his work ? Maybe, maybe not...

Reply #25 November 13, 2002 4:20 PM from WinCustomize Forums Top

I really doubt those are his works. I've seen those Triple X walls somewhere else and I don't recall his name being accociated with them. I think he just altered them.
