I think it's very rude to pass it off as your own (not to mention really bad Karma!)<br /><br />I'm sorry this is happening to you Nancy! What goes around comes around and one day (I feel sure) it will come back around their way.<br /><br />Hugs my friend!Jaci Clarkhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06550420628778761099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26612237.post-74579829786121582612007-02-04T13:52:00.000-08:002007-02-04T13:52:00.000-08:00you know I just recently ran into an issue where I...you know I just recently ran into an issue where I created a layout and someone posted that it looked very familiar to them. I was shocked because I try not to scraplift anyone and if I do I make sure that credit was given. Well I checked out her gallery and she had something "similar" but not just like mine. I had never seen her work before. <br /><br />I think it is a huge issue (copy pictures and all) in this industry but I have no clue how to protect myself ya know. Will check out the site just given :)Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11791892490751034347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26612237.post-68673947265494991212007-02-04T11:06:00.000-08:002007-02-04T11:06:00.000-08:00I am concerned about this from an industry perspec...I am concerned about this from an industry perspective. In church work, people used to copy songs all of the time. It was WRONG. Now, we have to pay license fees to use any of the music we use in worship. School systems also has to go through this for character usuage. You can't just make a picture of good old Winnie the Pooh and put him on your bulletin board. It is WRONG and you are violating copy right laws. If you are in FL or another state where Mickey lives you will be delt with heavily if you use a Disney character that you created yourself. You are breaking the law! <br /><br />So, with scraplifting being such a popular way to come up with ideas, I think it is in the best interest of the industry to set policy standards. It seems to me that it is clear that scraplifting is accepted only if proper and due credit is given to the orginator of the idea. Give 'em props ladies! <br /><br />Now, what about the other issue? What if you did come up with something, it was orginal to you and then you discovered that someone else came up with something similar? It happens all the time in the invention industry. Just say so! This idea was oringinal to me but I did run across others who have done something similar.Tammyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15556544972755573793noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26612237.post-20542073425755545792007-02-03T14:57:00.000-08:002007-02-03T14:57:00.000-08:00i never heard of this site before Jeanne...thank y...i never heard of this site before Jeanne...thank you.
