Check his signature; he has one of my banners in there. He even created a thread with my sigs (and a bunch from other people, some of which I actually know), but that was closed.
Could someone edit his sig please? Not even wanting the credit, since he claims it's his salamence banner.
Well, nothing can stop art theft..
Maybe just put your name in all your Banners so that they can't steal it
but then, If you wann report it then just PM a Staff..
That's my Suggestion anyway
I've disabled his signature and took out the banner. Sorry to know one of your banners have been victim to more theft. :\ But like Ryouki said, we can't exactly stop it happening.

Yeah I know, thanks Signomi. ^_^
And that's a very good suggestion, Ryouki, I've seen many do that. Still, people cut out the part with the name xd or paste new text in front of it.

Though even if TEHY Do that, Some of it won't really put in like they put there Name in front of lets say [Dootakun] they can't really cover the whole word with just the 'Name'
Maybe Um, try to put 2 names: One Visible and the second one Visible but not so much like camouflage xD
Nah, in that case, we'd give him a warning for a third signature offence. And three warnings for whatever reason = temp ban. Too minor (though I understand, offensive) for a temporary ban.
No, three signature offences generally = one warning. Anyway, if he does keep at it, then it's a warning for him. And if you catch him in the act, even moreso.
He insists on saying that they are his banners, that I'm lying. I'm gonna quote my PM and his answer:

Mind telling why you stole my banners, along with others? From what I see, you're a member of PIF, since one of the banners you stole was only posted there.
Dont play dumb with me Dootakun!!!! first you ask me for a job then you take credit for it then you come to other forums telling other people tht those are your banners????? i thought we were friends man! i dont ever wanna speak to ya again dude!!! dont need to send PMs i wont read them ....
Okay, I posted once, it didn't appear; I posted it again, the previous post appeared, I deleted the previous, but both got deleted oO So, I'm posting it a third time. Let's hope it sticks.
I assume you have the PSDs, then? If he uses the signature again, it's a juicy warning on his head. He can't prove it, and if he ignores the issue he's causing, then he can get into trouble as well.
Yeah, had to delete the previous post so this wouldn't be double-posting.
Now, I bring more evidences that the guy is a complete moron, who can't lie. However, he said that he was fooled by someone, so I must play all the cards now.
I only found this rip thanks to TwilightBlade, who assisted me (thanks again) by showing the PMs he and she had been exchanging.
Here there are! Click the spoiler.

First of all Your friend at [forum removed 1] probably never told ya this but i made those for him and i helped with the salamance one , (style part) he asked me to do some banners and if he could take credit for them in exchange he gave me some rare pokemon ( i was a novice to Diamond and Pearl so i kinda needed pokemon ) since i had been also recognized in some forums for making good banners and he PMed me in [forum removed 1] to do the job and i accepted now one thing is this, but another thing is he coming to Pokecommunity.com and saying tht those are his banners??????????? i only agreed to him to keep credit for my banners IN [forum removed 1], he didnt have to bring it this far!!!! and why are u acusing me without a solid proof?? OH BTW tell Dootakun i never wanna talk to him again .........
He would have told me about you or else I would have banned him since I'm admin there.. :/ And what's your username there? I haven't seen you in my life. I don't care about help or whatnot, but you're only supposed to show off your own original art so you two settle this out. And yeah, he is here at PC and even SPPf and other forums and claimed those banners as his own... I know he isn't that kind of person and he wouldn't steal art. I have solid proof. I've known him for a while and he posted before you. But do you have solid proof? And you tell him that. I ain't no delivery girl. And btw, I think you're lying to me. My forum is [forum removed 2], not [forum removed 1]. Shows how good you're at lying. >.>
Just because i typed a word wrong means im lying??? haha good good you should run for human lie detector -.- but anyways back to your little friend, when we made tht deal he never told anyone tht he took credit for my work , i dont know about you but he didnt tell anyone , you might be his friend but you didnt know of our deal , and sometimes ppl might seem inocent but theyre not , anyways he broke our deal !!! hes probably going to tell you thte he doesent know anything about me ».« well il have my revenge soon , im not a hacker for nothing hehe...
The fact that you don't know how to spell the forum and that you didn't tell me what username you were under proves you wasn't really a member there. >.>
And by the bolded stuff and your logic, you just gave me the right to not trust you. You seem so innocent to me but I can't tell if you're lying. ;D
An honest person would not crave revenge either by hacking. >.>
Btw, if you truly made those banners, then make another one and show me that it's your skill. The other banners in that thread shared no similarity to the ones I picked out. I would assume your other banners would be equally good but they weren't. Dootakun's stood out a lot and if that is actually your work and not his, then prove it and make a new thread with new work.
Dude you cant see if ppl are lying just by looking at them , ok you can do tht but only with ppl tht u kno or are friends with ( personal friends ) tht you can see when theyre lying or not, now acusing me just because i "SEEM" to be lying ? :( ok fine il make a new thread and youl see tht i dint steal anythign :(
Now, the IM log from MSN, some parts in portuguese, some in english. I'll translate the parts in portuguese [in bold], and if you think I'm lying, ask Wakachamo, he speaks portuguese.

Since he´s gonna make more banners the ones that at his old banner thread can now be used and you can take credit for them ;) its ok with him i talked to him, but of course he makes good banners, so il want a rare pokemon ;) you have any milotics ??
I can sympathize, it happened to me a while ago, but he removed it after one professionally written, grammatically correct e-mail (he disabled PMs ... go figure!)
I hope you somehow stop people from stealing your stuff. Maybe try Watermarking your banners. Your artwork is amazing and is deserved to be used by you and only you. I would hate people stealing my graphics without permission.
