Attention CursorFX Creators

from WinCustomize Forums

I don't normally like to do this, but sometimes it's necessary.

This DeviantART user was banned several times last year for ripping many CursorFX themes from WC and for posting warez files for CursorFX.

For some reason his account has been activated again, and there's a bunch of CursorFX themes from WC skinners there.

I have already contacted DA about this, but I want to let the CFX skinners know to go and have their works removed too.

You can use their report feature on the skin page, or send a DMCA to [email protected].

Here is a DMCA template to use: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/3083208/dmca%20template.docx

spencer, starkers alerted me to someone over at deviant art who took my fearomone icons and said they were theirs, i reported it, gave the links to here and STILL they are there.

so even though my cursor is on his site... i just dont think it will get removed, maybe im being too sceptical..

 

just checked, yep they are still up despite me being the original author. link: http://browse.deviantart.com/customization/icons/ip/?order=5&offset=120#/d4ninhj

Use the DMCA removal notice, not just the site report button.

Sometimes I think it's a prerequisite of being a skinner that you must have your work ripped somewhere/somewhen....;)
