and
http://www.manywebgames.com - http://www.manywebgames.com
have decided they own the interwebs and everything on it, taking the 1st trophy icon from Pixeljoint (created by me) and also some naruto sprites, which i've seen around before, but i can't find the original creators. Any help with that would be great so i can notify them.
Trying to look for the original creators of these sprites:
 
All i want to do is to get these taken off. Don't go harassing the site since they'll take us less seriously when i want to actually speak to them about the issue. Ta.

People must really like your trophies, this is the second or third time this happened (that I know of). 
As for those sprites I remember the creator (don't remember who) said they were being made for a friend's website, so they might not be so stolen after all.

They didn't even bother changing the image filename. Dumb bunch of pricks.

Thanks surt, i messaged him to let him know. Seems like the other naruto sprite was from a naruto game.
ucanplay seems to have removed the images already, which is strange.
I can't find a way to contact the admins of manywebgames, which is bloody annoying.

Their main banner is actually a rip from the starcraft2.com website, under the artwork section i beleive. If you've played starcraft before, you can tell it's a marine. (it might just be me, but stealing from Blizzard isn't a very wise decision)

Met, are you talking about the banner or the game itself? Because the game isn't working for me, it just says "loading..." and it doesn't do anything.
