Yeah, no, I’m cross-tagging because the lack of attention this is getting overall is pissing me off.
Ajit Pai killed Net Neutrality. You’ll start seeing the effects you were warned about on April 23rd. Oh, and he apparently got an award for Courage from the NRA gun nuts, too.
You can still help by calling your senators and representatives. We just need ONE MORE PERSON on our side to get the senate portion of Congress to overrule the FCC’s decision to kill net neutrality. The battle for the net won’t end there, but it’s a start. Go to battleforthenet to find out who your reps are and where they stand, and CONTACT THEM.
Twenty-three states are also suing the FCC for this. I haven’t looked into it yet, but I assume big businesses like Google and Amazon are as well. Nevertheless, we can’t rely on lengthy lawsuits alone. The changes to your internet start in less than two months. We don’t have a whole lot of time.
Blow this up. Contact your reps. Please, do something! We HAVE to get the decision overruled!
So today I have sad news to bring to you, I’ve been plagied.
I had some messages there telling me if I made a game that I released lastly, knowing I didn’t I asked no and wanted to know why many people asked me this, then they gave me a link to the Facebook page of the company :
I looked on it, and directly saw the icon that is, quasi my little pigeons I animate bouncing, then I was like “ mmm … maybe they were inspired but they could ask for permission because it’s way too similar for my taste, it’s really like my animations” then I saw the videos and it was terrible.
You may already what I animate, but when I saw the video of the gameplay, I had no words.
All of my motions, bouncing animals, Dancing frames are exactly the sames !!
They totally copied my art !!!
So I contacted them, I wanted to be sure, they replied me that it’s for game and that my art is for animation so it’s not the same. Sigh
So I told my friends about it, many tried tu put messages to discuss with them, no success. Some even were blocked when they put proof of my work.
I’m lost, I didn’t sleep last night because of this, I contacted lawyers and got some explanation, so it’s still going but I have to deal with it and I wanted you to know my current situation.
I share this with you because I’m an artist, this kind of thing happen to us WAY too often and I want to act, for me, for you, for any artists on the internet!
It have to stop!
I have so many proofs on my blog, but also you know me and my art well.
I can’t let this pass and stay there.
All I wanted was just to spread happiness with my art, now some took all my dreams and hope to make money … but I’m fighting !
Please be aware of this and tell people that it’s total plagiat of my art.
Thank you.
Edit, Thank you all so much for your messages !!!
Replying to all is so hard but thank you for taking the time for it !
Also as many said yes, it clearly also look like the trash dove from FB, it’s like they just took our ideas and fused them to make something that could make a buzz I’m sooo disgusted.
This is NOT okay.
Things You Can Do:
-Leave a negative review on the app store of your choice -Contact them through their website -Report them on the app store of your choice -Talk about it on social media. Say the name of the game, say “Fortafy Games” – make this stuff show up when people Google them! -Try to leave comments on their Facebook about it – double check it goes through, they’re marking them as spam
Update: They’re blocking everyone who comments about this~
I actually use a line tool! Since I use a mouse, I can’t get proper pressure to work when doing the lines, so they’d end up looking really messy and squiggly. The line tool that Paint.net has is really practical, because it gives you two options; one where the curve points are more…’direct’ and one where the curve points make the curve smoother (I use the second one the most to make the smooth lines)
It’s hard sometimes to get it right, since I’m not the best with poses, but I prefer it more than I would using the normal drawing tool (which I use more for doodles)!
Guys we got a lot going on political wise now but this one is one issue that should have been cut and dry and done.
Call your rep ASAP so they don’t forget to do this. Probably mention this would be the easiest legislation they would ever pass and get done
guys this is happening tomorrow and this looks like once it’s gone it will be a bitch and a half to get back CALL YOUR SENATORS PLEASE
Reblog the hell out of this please
One of my favourite things is fairy tales set in modern times. Idk why I just find it so interesting
