well, there’s a difference in following a tut and recreating the final result for yourself, and just plain copy paste the image, that’s nasty… Me, I try out a tut, and then start over all by my self, not looking at the tut. Then it kinda get’s burned into my brain 😛 much like the basic AS I know now, I hardly ever use a reference, I’ve got it all in my head =) ---

Now eveything that’s left are the ripped tutes… agreed, its like inventing a new car, then when people rip off the the design, you pull it from the market…the rippers get everything but i feel for him, there is a certain point where you say enough is enough, the internet is a dirty place, this dude couldn’t cope ---

That is what I do as well. And yes, that was an INCREDIBLE tutorial. Very in depth and produced a great effect. I remember doing it a while back. People are annoying. ---

well, you can’t really blame the guy. I’d feel the same way if that happened to me all the time. I’d have a lawyer look at it for me tho. Copyright is a very serious offense on the net right now. ---

I emailed her and told her she was a dumb[butt] I mean why else make tutorials like that? Shes not selling them. Shes not _losing_ money because of this; shes still getting the word out there - shes spreading her knowledge. The fact that her tutorials are being duplicated should be a complimentary gratification. Imitation IS the sincerest form of flattery. Now shes stopping altogether and it just reflects poorly on her own self. I think its re\*\*\*\*ulous :-\ ---

I don’t blame her either. Her site has excellent tutorial, he obviously puts a tremendous amount of work into them. So of course she would be angry when people just steal all her hard work and say “oh, check out this tutorial we wrote”. And nope, but i’m pretty sure I know. I think everyone here knows how much I hate people, especially a lot of people here in Philadelphia 😠 ---

I agree with sen… the energy spent on this mental masturbation is insane… It has always happened (Mr. Comstock of the largest Silver strike in the history of USA, was a con man who said it was his mine, for example), is happening right now, prob to me even, and will continue to happen… Do I try to alter my life? some, when it isn’t really a hassle to do something different, maybe… But in general, life is way too short to be concerned with copycats and imposers. If you have to rely on stuff with your name on it to prove it’s yours, then the web is prob not the medium for you. Just my unrequested opinion. Rev ![](http://www.aulman.com/rev.gif) ---
