Woo. I got name-checked and linked to as a victim.
It's kind of annoying, but as a couple of people on DeviantArt have pointed out, it's kind of nice to be considered *worth* stealing from, and also it's nice that a few people recognised my style straight away and informed me of the situation.
I'm a generous kind of guy, you know? I'm sure that if the guilty parties had simply asked permission I would have given it. As it is, they've earned a buck off of other people's time and effort, and that is pretty damned low.

ComicsAlliance, which was the first site I became aware of the piece being ran upon, have emailed me an apology and removed the article. They say they were unaware of the dishonest nature of the piece when they ran it.
See, it's small gestures like this that I really appreciate.

Weirdly the guy who did this thing can't even tell the difference between a pic of a toy and a comic image
also that Hound is his Cybertronian mode from Spotlight: Galvatron etc, so it doesn't even turn into a jeep
or how they just use what seem to be coloured in images from the instruction books (like with that Chromedome and Tracks
And what the hell is up with their "Rodimus Prime" that's just a weird recolour of Armada Prime!
Where did they get Wheelie's alt mode from as well???
And a nit-picky thing, but that's Counterpunch, not Punch in that image

Strangely enough, I had this comment on my Windcharger piece when I got home from work tonight.
It also appears that this person signed up for DA specifically so that they could extend an apology.
Manners aren't such a challenge, now are they?

Manners aren't such a challenge, now are they? Given that it was done by a car insurance company, it was hardly 'non-commercial' though, was it! Still, nice that they apologised, and that is some good exposure for you |
