Moments ripping.

[lawls]

ok.. i found something ripped in two of moments' tags.
the first one is this one:
//i233.photobu cket.c om/albums/ee207/mattimogalli/eatsquid.png

The image he used is not a stock, but a photograph of Jon Jacobsen.

The image he used is not a stock:
//w ww.flickr. co m/photos/loganart/2691246334/in/photostream

and the image used in this one isn't a stock either:

I say perma ban.

That's not ripping. He's using stock photography and manipulating them. However if those stocks aren't for use by other people then that's a different matter. Though I know this was not a malicious endeavor as moments most likely got these images in packs and used them as his focal points. This is not an offense I can ban anyone for, however if the photographers feel that their work is being used without permission then I will ask moments to take his work down which includes these photos. Or else I will do it for him.

Regardless, in future you should send me a private message and not make a thread. If you feel that you want to further discuss this then you may send me a private message and I will be more than happy to help you.
