Shoop THEFT

Postby Masato » Fri Sep 26, 2014 9:09 am

Hey all

get this:

There is a very cool Facebook Page called 'As Shopped As It Gets':
https://www.facebook.com/IronArmShops?ref=br_tf

Dude had a GREAT idea to make a Ronda Rousey Pokemon card, and graciously asked if he could use one of my shoops for it (from the Rondzilla poster I made):

Very cool, no harm done, people getting smiles.



But then check this out;

Some asshole named MMAGamesnFighting took that shoop, STUCK HIS FUCKING WEBSITE ALL OVER IT, and spammed it with his Instagram.

It made its way to Rousey and she shared it, and it got 27000 views:

This is wrong.

I need to call this guy out man... but I don't have an Instagram account.

Fucking wanker

That's not cool. I would give him a pass if he just shared it around without giving credit to the original artist, but stamping his own name on it is really lame.

That's making me rethink my opposition to watermarking my shoops.

I saw a post on Instagram where the dude said somethin like "Hey Ronda, if you wanna see more of these come visit me @ ________" or something

- but now I can't find it.


Too many great shoops go uncredited. Its kind of cool to just make for its own sake too, anonymous shoops are fun and have a special quality. But to watermark someone else's shoop I think is a low kind of move.

How can we troll this guy back?
:D

I just noticed that he cropped out the As Shopped As It Gets logo at the bottom of the image. That's dirty!

Send a message directly to rousey. That should be pretty easy.
People say they all want the truth, but when they are confronted with a truth that disagrees with them, they balk at it as if it were an unwanted zombie apocalypse come to destroy civilization.

it is, it just gets buried in the other 50,000 tweets she gets every hour.

She never even saw my Rousey Action Figure yet as far as I know. That's why I'm pissed at this dude, lol

lol

Whatever you do, credit the Pokemon Card to AS SHOPPED AS IT GETS (not me)

It was his idea, he just borrowed one of my shoops for the illustration.

I am thinking about making a gallery called 'The Great Artworks of MMAGamesnFighting' with all his masterpieces throughout the decades

:D
