I was having a talk with Rinjapine, who found her art stolen and reposted in some blogs when we came up with an idea...

Art thieving is nothing new and it happens A LOT. When it happens on DA is bad enough, but when it happens in other sites is even worse because sometimes, reporting them does just nothing.

So I made a suggestion on the forum that I think may help and protect us from such things to happen.

Please guys, take a look and if you like my idea, if you agree that we DESERVE some protection (I mean real protection and not just "reporting" thing), vote so the idea may have chances of being heard...

I'm not sure it's a great idea, but I think it may at least help. So please, take a look. Let's fight for our rights and against the art thieves.

It's possible that the reason reporting it on other sites isn't doing anything is because you aren't providing sufficient proof that the art really is yours. Very few sites will ignore a properly written DMCA notice because if they do, they are basically asking to get sued.

Keep in mind that unfortunately, there are a lot of idiots out there who file false copyright claims just to try to get art they don't like removed from a site. Because of that, sites cannot remove art unless you are able to provide them with sufficient proof that you really are the artist.
