So /p/ I have a friend Steve, not a close friend, know him through several people. Well a while ago I was browsing his photos on facebook and noticed he had some pretty great stuff. So I comment on a few and ask him what equipment he uses he replied:

"www.flickr.com/the_schmeeb

as far as lenses and equipment goes, I'm usually shooting with people who are better prepared than me. I dont have any really decent equipment of my own."

So I was like hmmmm interesting.... a little suspicious, but quickly forgot about it, looked through his Flickr album... Lots of different camera types in the EXIF and some very good stuff... Most of his photos he posts on facebook are garbage, but then out of nowhere he'll have like a whole album with great stuff...

So now, today, I was looking up image results for the EFS 10-22 and came across posted picture and a few others that looked strangely familiar... quickly look through the facebook pics and find several copies.

Here is the flickr of what came up in the image results:

http://www.flickr.com/photos/wvs/

So take a look at the two mainly the "cityscapes" set on both... You'll see many identical photographs.

Maybe it's all just a coincidence or the work of the evil white man (Jayson Blair) that drove him to plagiarize?

I kinda just noticed that there's a link for REPORT THIS PHOTO.

>>145576

Yeah I know, what my plan is....

I am gonna wait for the flickr guy to email me back, even though I am almost 100% certain that he is in fact stealing his work. Once I have confirmation I am going to comment on a lot of the photos he has posted that aren't his, and if you are familiar with facebook you'll know that all the people who have previously commented on the photo will also get an email saying I have posted after them. Gonna write him a nice message on his wall about stealing somebody else's work and claiming it's his. Then I will report all his photos and possible more... we'll see.

He'll probably just delete the comments and block you.

and my wall message too....

I wouldn't be surprised if he just deletes all my messages and blocks me, but I have told other people about it too. I just want to see how he reacts pretty much

A dude once pulled a bunch of my short films from my website and uploaded them to youtube as his own. And it wasn't just a simple copy and upload thing either, he cut off the credits and/or replaced them with his own name, responed to comments, and made up stories about the projects.

Honestly, it was kind of flattering in a backhanded sort of way, but also creepy to have my persona stolen.

In any case, take this fucker down. Nothing pisses me off more than this kind of shit.
