No longer using DA and where I am now

Journal Entry: Thu Sep 27, 2007, 9:31 PM
My apologies to anyone who has tried to contact me through this site and as a result I've missed your gallery showings, parties, visitations to Sydney etc.

My photography website is - Paul Wesley Photography [link]
and I can be contacted through this site.

If you wish to view some of my general photography work or recent
projects please use this link 'Gallery' '[link] or 'Body of work' [link]

For reasons that don't involve the wider community on this site but are related to the management and ownership of Deviantart I no longer use nor patronise this site.


Take care.

Paul

Sorry Paul haven't been on for a while! Apparently he's back under a different name!

Being told and informed by others who know is the usual method. In the case of this DA member they were too lazy to remove the JPEG details when they took the work which gave a link back to the DA site and the artists.

Very welcome Paul, perhaps something more will come of it. :D

Many thanks Paula for finally eliciting this from Deviantart Inc. At last we have a response and affirmation in writing from them.

Hopefully now they will foster a reporting philosophy through their admins.

It seemed to take a little while for him to be removed from the site though, how can you find out if any of your work is being used by someone else???

Hi Paul, this is the reply I received:

Yes.

Any user caught submitting actual child pornography is immediately reported to the FBI for further investigation.

You know Paula the process shouldn't be an overly complex one. A complaint comes in. You ask the complainant or victim to prove that the work was theirs. You then give the alleged offender the opportunity for a response. If it is unsatisfactory or in the case of 'Famousde' who openly admitted and boasted that he was stealing them. You then remove that member from this site to prevent the continuance of any further offences and then support your valued policy abiding members in any actions that they wish to pursue civilly or criminally against the offender.

Unless you take strict and appropriate action against the offenders you don't send any clear message to any other potential offenders and there is no detterent factor created for others to not engage in this behaviour.

DA isn't creating a safe and ethical environment for members to post their images into.
~selenoboy:iconselenoboy: May 30, 2007, 4:48:20 AM
I will openly admit that this system that DA has really gets to me. They keep saying that the Help Desk is the only way to communicate with them rather than 'random admins' but where are the replies?

I'm still waiting too.
