So I was farting around searching for my name on Google and happened upon a thread here at TT that someone posted about missing my work. He stated that he had seen my work on all the normal areas outside my DA account that I know credit me for my work. There was one I was unfamiliar of though, Ticklingfr.com.... After sending him a message stating I'm still alive, contrary to the belief, I decided to look into this Ticklingfr.com.
After a second or two searching for it on Google, I came upon the site here.... http://www.ticklingfr.com/
I found it easier to navigate with Google's translator if anyone is interested in viewing the page. I looked in photos and clicked the drawings section. I found alot of my older work, about 50% of which had a "TicklingFR.com" water mar on the bottom right hand corner of the image (See attachment for example, and forgive the terrible looking art).
Now, this frustrated the hell out of me. How could a forum collect so many different pieces of art and photos and stamp their name on it when it is clearly not theirs? Right now I am leading a single strike force against this treachery. I need more ammo though, what can I do to make certain that my work will be taken down?
This is what I have done so far... I have laid claim that the work posted on their site is wrongly featured with misleading watermarks indicating ownership. I have posted links to all the images I could find on the site and asked them to take them down within two weeks. 24 hours after posting it, there were quite a few responses. Some fearing that it is spam, viruses, spyware, etc. Some considering how unjust the situation in, but there's only so much a free translator can actually decipher to the point of smooth readability. Hopefully moderators or owners of the site will realize that what I speak is fair and will take down the falsified art claims, or at least credit the rightful artists.
It's pretty sad too, there's alot of work up there. Some of it fairly new with the "TicklingFR.com" watermarks at the bottom right hand. Work from Jezzie, Cabbit Cat, Cheshire Cat, PsylisiaDragoon, Umojar, TheBandito, amongst others are getting "TicklingFR.com" watermarks slapped on them.
What do you all think about this?
