Davidson Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 He really meant it when he called it a "Carbonmade" portfolio...as in carbon paper used for making copies?lol, a guy at work just made the same point. carboncopied.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
october23sp Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Just so everyone knows, I put the outdoor hockey league logo that burgundyskins made for me on zazzle and he approved it for me to do so.Just so no one thinks I'm like this tool.

rvrdgsfn Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Its not just Davidson's work as well. He stole some of the guys from Puck Drawn as well. I read about this on a tweet from Icelethics. http://twitter.com/icethetics/http://www.puckdrawn.com/puckdrawn/2010/09/design-thief-jeff-land-studios.htmlThat's when I saw he took Davidson's stuff as well.

Roger Clemente Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Not only are all his logos stolen from other people, the picture on his profile page looks like it was stolen from the music video for "Take On Me". Follow me on Twitter if you care: @Animal_Clans.My opinion may or may not be the same as yours. The choice is up to you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gingerbreadmann Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 Not that anyone here would know firsthand, but can I ask what motivates people to do this? Do they expect not do get caught, and even if they do, to be let off easy? Do they do it to get hired for freelance stuff? What happens when you're hired and can't do on your own? Do you find an existing logo for any request and trace it and pass it off on your own, and after doing that a few times for real clients in exchange for real money, still expect not to get caught and busted?I seriously can't think of any benefits to doing something like this. I'm sure there are many people out there who haven't been caught, but it doesn't seem worth it for all the hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eRay Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 When I think Miami, I think Mammoths.This guy is as good as dead. He didn't steal any of my work, but I'm not opposed to physically harming him if I ever see him. Can't imagine how the victims feel. Dude's a joke, hopefully this is as far as it went, and he never got any jobs off of "his" portfolio or sold any of that work. Hopefully when I do run into him it's in a few years, and he's still working at Taco Bell. I cannot confirm that he works there now, I can only assume.

HydroBolt3 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 All he's done was take others work and made them worse. Much worse.My conclusion: Bust his Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildwing64 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 How strange, this thread hasn't even existed for two hours and he appears to have pulled the plug on his site already.But yeah, his blatant theiving, along with his bad recolouring (see Davidson's Tigers logo) and the names he came up with for the teams were laughable.

I would think he knew about this place, considering some of the logos he jacked were prominently featured here for a while. I swear, people here find any similarities at all, shape, names, or color to be grounds for crying rip-off even when it isn't warranted. It's absolutely incredible how this douchenozzle could think he wouldn't be busted. On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.

DelayedPenalty Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 His Carbonmade page "cannot be found" anymore. Looks like the gig is up.Shall we figure out what school he goes to and contact his professors? I'm guessing they don't know most of his "work" is stolen?

Waffles Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 What really gets me is how stylistically and qualitatively different these designs are. How is anyone supposed to believe the same person who did the Brooklyn Horsemen logo also did the Orlando Pirates logo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davidson Posted September 28, 2010 Author Share Posted September 28, 2010 looks like the matter has been resolved. this is the letter the sportsdrawn guy received:This is Jeff's father, it's come to my attention of his "artwork". He has been given a very stern talk about stealing, and lying. He will be punish accordingly at home. He's taken down all profiles and art, He deeply regrets his decisions and will not be heard from again.Mark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damn, is daddy going to kill him or something? and then there's this from my Arena Football team a few years back...Yep! Now it's personal!!! He did though add a drop shadow. Oh, and he changed the Magenta to Red.Wait, isn't that at least 30% different? That means it's okay. On January 16, 2013 at 3:49 PM, NJTank said: Btw this is old hat for Notre Dame.
