Stolen design

Just want to let everyone on here know that the following design was stolen from work I did for my own tshirt company:

http://www.threadless.com/submission/147258/In_Dreams

You can find the original design on my site here:

http://lintyfresh.bigcartel.com/product/comin-soon-the-most-fantastic-things

All I'm asking is that if you've scored the design please go back and give it a 0. I'd also like to petition to remove this user:

They apparently have a record of stealing designs. Obviously this sort of thing is inevitable in the industry, but when people like this are caught, the heaviest penalties should apply. Your support is much appreciated!

Also, huge thanks to those of you who emailed me about this.

Yeah that person steals from everyone.

EXM THANKS I WAS TTLY WONDRING ABOUT THAT!

Answerthatandstayfashionable on Jan 13 '08 at 7:29pm

OH HAHAH I didn't see yours! That's the exact same thing! Hahaha funny
They keep copying and pasting people's designs. Threadless will remove them, I'm sure.

They better. This sort of thing makes us actual designers sick.

Answerthatandstayfashionable on Jan 13 '08 at 7:32pm

He won't be printed anyways.
I can't believe he didn't even change the colors or anything!
Too funny

oh man that blows!!

long time no see. hows it going btw?

gameyy on Jan 13 '08 at 7:42pm

Wow, it's been ages dude! I'm surprised you're still around. I'm doing good, still working on getting Linty Fresh out there but so far so good. How are you?

Perudoesitbetterthanu on Jan 13 '08 at 7:47pm

not too bad, i just recently came back...i had winter break and i could never get nething done during school so i started submitting again since i had some time.

Linty fresh sounds cool...i gotta look into that more. Hows printing stuff on your own going?

gameyy on Jan 13 '08 at 7:51pm

Not bad! It's picking up each month and starting this year I'll be printing new stuff every month. Plus I'm going to break into some new stuff like bags and hoodies and what not. Trying to further develop this style too. You still thinking about it?

I've seen this one somewhere a long time ago.

shimala on Jan 13 '08 at 7:55pm

what a clown... I'm going to remove all of his designs that we have proof on... I'm sure the others will follow shortly.
He really needs to learn how to save something as every design is all pixelated as if they were done in MS Paint.

I thought One Language was on Lafraise but I can't find it

gameyy on Jan 13 '08 at 7:57pm

Thanks craig.

gameyy on Jan 13 '08 at 7:57pm

It's shirtcity or something I think.

Perudoesitbetterthanu on Jan 13 '08 at 7:58pm

Thats cool, yeah sorta...ive printed some stuff on my own but doing it alone is pretty hard and partners who dont really help doesnt really work either....alotta fallouts like that have taken a toll.

taxi cab!! haha yeah i know

gameyy on Jan 13 '08 at 7:59pm

Oh, I don't mean I print my own stuff manually. I use a printer in florida. You should check out emptees.com. You can network with a lot of pros in the field there.

Perudoesitbetterthanu on Jan 13 '08 at 8:04pm

oh yeah thats what i meant. ive printed at mammoth.

so big cartel just hosts your store?

helo on Jan 13 '08 at 8:06pm

here's my blog concerning one of that person's designs that appears to be stolen

gameyy on Jan 13 '08 at 9:19pm

Shimala: Shouldn't this guy just be banned outright? If he's obviously got a pattern of stealing other people's work, why let him continue to submit? Would you even print one of his design if it scored highly?

Peru: Yeah, big cartel is a wonderful tool for guys like me that don't want to mess with coding their own store but want to keep their own inventory and keep a close eye on things. I used to have a joomla store but I was always having issues with it.

Helo: Good move. If he's even allowed to stay on here, people should have the right to know what he's done.
