Awkward Situations removed

Tue Mar 31, 2009, 5:12 PM
  • Mood: Confused
So my motivational poster "Awkward Situations" has been removed due to copyright violation according to messages sent to me this morning by Deviant art staff. Now just to be clear I never claimed that the Halo 3 screen shot that I turned in a motivational poster was my own work. I stated in the artist's comments that I found the picture at the roosterteeth website (the site famous for Red vs Blue) and that I didn't know who took the screen shot. At this point I don't know who made the copyright violation claim, the 2 messages I received from Deviant art are just automated messages saying that a copyright violation claim was filed and that immediate action was taken. I'm not angry, I'm just confused because I can't really think of who legally owns that screen shot other that the person who originally took it (and if that person is the one who filed the claim, then I apologize for using you work without your permission). In any event I have no intentions to sell other people work, a couple of print requests were submitted to me for the poster but I wasn't going to sell something that I simply edited to be a motivational poster. If the person who filed the claim ever reads this I would just like to know specifically why you had the poster removed so I can better understand this situation. In the future if anyone sees something of theirs in my gallery I ask that you send me a message here on Deviantart or an email politely explaining that my artwork is in violation of your copyright and that you would like it removed and I will take the artwork in question down. Otherwise all I get is an annonymous automated message.
