Read the news post over a http://www.x-panded.com/pixeldam/cityaffair.asp?aid=23 - Pixeldam I am sure that Barry (PD's owner/admin) will get this sorted out soon enough, but I thought you should all know as well. |

Note Jal's comment on that page 'bout how none of his stuff got ripped. I think he's insulted :D ------------- "I was minding my own business and walking across a pebbled path, and a Duck started giving me the business." |

I think that's because his things didn't fit their 'real life' theme. Which is a good thing. It's so dumb, i can't believe some people would actually bother to do this, and think they can get away with it. GRR! I say, i say. -------------  http://larw-ck.deviantart.com">

I wouldn't be surprised if they themselves were the rippers. They probably thought since it was just computer art that no one would care. >_< I hate people who think that art created on a computer isn't art. ------------- |

Sadly, yes this continues. It seems that the laws in Turkey are quite
different as it relates to online content. Several people are looking
into it too from what I can gather. Barry should send an email with
updates soon and I shall report.

Thought I'd bring the latest news on this. It seems that http://www.planetofinternet.com/ - Planet of Internet has changed ownership and management. An unknown company called Pixoftware LTD sent us several emails to cease accusing them of copyrights violation. From: Planet Of Internet Info Team [mailto:info@planetofinternet.com] Sent: maandag 27 november 2006 11:08 To: mayor@pixeldam.net Subject: Hello, About Planet Of Internet Hello, We want to inform you that, our all advertisers advertisement contracts finished. Please check planet of internet web site. We removed your all buildings, all images. We want to inform you, you can now remove us from your website. Also, you need to write to everywhere where you send about us before. As you see we removed your images. Please clean Planet Of Internet domain name. Thanks And Regards Planet Of Internet Pixoftware Today we received this email demanding we delete all forum postings and articles about the unlawfull acts of the site's previous owner. From: Planet Of Internet [mailto:planetofinternet@gmail.com] Sent: zaterdag 16 december 2006 2:30 To: barry@x-panded.com Subject: Urgent (Planet Of Internet) Hello; We saw that you still didn't delete this post: http://www.x-panded.com/pixeldam/cityaffair.asp?aid=23 Please delete it as quickly as possible. Then write these forums that we do not brake your Copyright stuation. Here are the some links: http://www.youngentrepreneur.com/forum/showthread.php?t=5184 http://www.webia.info/forums/viewtopic.php?t=19&sid=f0fe21a2e0b2a635aeae61d2b52e8512 http://internetvibes.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=3297 THIS PROJECT IS NOW PURCHASED BY PIXOFTWARE LTD. Thanks for your cooperation. Pixoftware Ltd. In our response I wrote: Hello anonymous, We will not delete any posts. The fact that the website had stolen ALL it's images from our community is a fact and we will not change history. It happened and we will not deny it. I suggest that you post a reply on those forums stating that it was an unfortunate situation by the previous owners and that you would never commit such a violation. What I shall do for you to 'clean your name' is write an article on PixelDam that it is under new management and that you promise to not violate any copyrights in the future. Good day to you sir. Barry Rijkse PixelDam Administrator [update 16.dec.06] We have a response: 2006/12/16, Planet Of Internet planetofinternet@gmail.com: Hello; As you see now, the planet of internet web site is clean. We removed your all images. Because we don't need them. Our Isometric Pixel Art Department create all images. There isn't any illegal situation from our part. But if you do not remove (delete or change) that post, you will create an illegal situation. This is not our problem what happened in last time. Is there any copyright violation now? The answer is exactly: NO So if you want to create illegal situation, Do Not Delete, Change Or Remove that post. We will not send you any e-mail again. This is our last Warning. Planet Of Internet is absolutely clean right now. So remove, delete, change that post immediately. Thanks And Regards. Pixoftware Ltd. And my reply to this 'last warning' 2006/12/16, PixelDam pixeldam@gmail.com: Hello anonymous, I feel silly having to exlpain this to you, but the specific post you are referring to is 'archived'. That means it is old news. There are no active nor current accusations from us that you are violating copyrights. Thus, there is no illegal situation on our behalf so stop whining about it. If you read the 'active' news on our home page http://www.pixeldam.net/ you will see a new post about your current situation and this conversation. But, alas, since you are all wound up about it, I will take the trouble to update the archived post, denounce the violation accusation and refer to the new article. Best of wishes, Barry Rijkse PixelDam Administrator ------------- |
