Some of my images are available as layered Photoshop files, so it could be that someone bought an image for the effects layers and replaced the model with their own. I'm not too bothered if another designer uses the idea, so long as it's not sold as stock.Ratsoap wrote:Indeed, it looks like out and out plagiarism of the first image Mqark posted.aureole wrote:Weird - it's *very* similar to some of your stuff though.

I saw one of these in the Argos catalogue in the shop in the phones section, in relation to a particular network I think. I've just looked through the phones in the copy I have at home, and it's not in that, must have been an updated page in the store version.

Stuart B - thought I'd already said thanks for those scans but it appears not - so thanks, it's appreciated.
Re: Rod_spotting
I was walking through makro earlier today and saw abuot 30-40 of these staring at me (it's been in the Makro Mail for months, on all of the Goodmans TVs):


Is this going to take long, only my foot's gone to sleep and I'd like to catch it up.

We use one of Rod's images on the questionnaire handed out after recruitment lectures.
Re: Rod_spotting
Thanks for the updates, Surprising how popular those images still are.
Been noticing a few more blatant rip offs recently:


What annoys me is they're not bringing anything new to the concept, just lazy copies.

I spotted one at the box-office of my local cinema a few months ago. I fully expect one to appear in the Chinese take-away around the corner before too long.

Heh, received my issue today - for anyone interested my article was inspired by these kind of blatant copies of my work, the China one tipped me over the edge:Jedburgh wrote:All you Rod_S fans might want to pick up issue 149 of Computer Arts which should be on sale tomorrow, featuring a fascinating article about plagiarism on page 28

But yeah, everyone buy the new Computer Arts!
Thanks for those, matt303 and cclemon, missed 'em first time around.
