Davidson Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 EDIT:I have removed the email address of the offending party as he has written to me expressing remorse and contrition for his actions. Whilst what he did was wrong, i think jeff has learned a valuable life lesson.as he is a student and barely past being considered a minor, i think any further retribution may be disproportionate and could cause servere damage to his education.i will soon remove the screenshots of his site. In the mean time I Will leave these images posted as a guide to how not to make a start in the design industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidson Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 Here are the pieces I recognise as my own. They are clearly traced as many are at the angle and have the warping i have on my work still visible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieRose Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Wow, that is just insane! It doesn't help that some of these were clearly made in MSPaint, and some appear like they were ripped straight from presentation templates. Also, Goannas isn't spelled "Guana". This kid is about to get destroyed.And as an aside, it it sad that I find it discouraging that none of my work has been stolen (yet)?

dmhtfld Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 This dude is pitiful, he even stole a professional teams logo (Minnesota Lynx). I hope this guy gets busted really bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee. Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Surprised that no one has appropriated the Marinerzz for their portfolios yet. Welcome to DrunjFlix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raz Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Also, Goannas isn't spelled "Guana". Actually, I think he was trying to spell 'Iguanas'Although plentiful, the misspellings aren't the worst thing going on here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-(dp)- Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Fraser, you're trippin. His Pirates logo is for a team named the ORLANDO Pirates. Clearly different than yours.Seriously, though. This is pitiful. I recognize at least four or five of the others from here as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Windmill360 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 And as an aside, it it sad that I find it discouraging that none of my work has been stolen (yet)?Hahah i was thinking the same thing.Man I wonder sometimes what goes through some peoples minds.... You would expect something like this from an 8 year old or something but this guy (21 years old) claims that he's had a fondness for drawing ever since he was a kid... This is one of the first things you learn it is NOT ok to do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueSky Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 He really meant it when he called it a "Carbonmade" portfolio...as in carbon paper used for making copies? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Morgan33 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Thanks for posting the originals, I was curious to see how blatant this was.I thought he would have at least changed a few things up to hide his thievery but nope, he's pretty much copied the logos outright. You got to wonder what people like this are thinking... Stealing a bunch of concept logos from a community of designers so they can flaunt them as their own on the web? You can't fix stupid.
