resubmitting gallery

Journal Entry: Tue Aug 29, 2006, 8:35 AM
i'm resubmitting my entire gallery. the images are being replaced by ones with a watermark 'cause i'm tired of seeing my work being ripped and placed on websites and online galleries as if they were their own. even here on DA!
i've received a lot of notes from people who have seen such cases (thank you guys!) so i figured it's time to do something about it. i also want to give you all an advice: watermark your work! it can happen to you too.
take care.

It's really annoying when that happens. But, still we'll be enjoying looking at the resubmitted work ^^

WOW, I never thought that people would rip off traditional artists... This is not good.
Unfortunately the world is full of horrible and uncreative people, I wish the best of luck that this should never again happen to you:)
Great talent should be appreciated and not destroyed.

its a shame it comes down to that, putting watermakrs on the pics makes them look less shiney :) stupid art stealers >< all they get is a false sense of accomplishment

It's sad that artists have to do this to their work...

I guess it is inevitable. Don't worry. In a way, it's a good sign...

It means that your artwork is so good that others want to claim it.

I am so sorry for that. I never loved watermarked drawings.. watermarks reduce their beauty.. but hey, you had to do something to prevent them to steal your art again! :(
too bad.. :no:

I am sure watermarks won't stop me to love your art and fav your new pieces ;)

Think of it this way: all new people get to see your older art as its submitted. The reason this is good is you may get some fresh perspectives on your art. No guarantee, but there's always a chance.
